Changing the profile meant a Save button at the foot of the form, which
the floating navigation bar half covered on a phone. A field now saves
when it is left or Enter is pressed in it, and a link when it is
removed; "Saving…" and "Saved" show beside the title. The form keeps
what is being written as saves come back, where it used to start afresh
and lose focus after each one.
The handle is chosen in a dialog that asks the instance while it is
typed whether it is free (`ProfileEndpoint.checkHandle`, which tells
nothing `byHandle` doesn't), and choosing the first makes the profile
with what was written. Saves go one at a time, the latest of those
waiting next, and a handle chosen holds for every save after it, so a
field's save can't take it back.

Stage 1 of the public tier (ADR 0005). A person with an identity has a
public profile: a handle by Mastodon's rules (1 to 30 letters, digits or
underscores, unique whatever its case, a few kept for the instance),
changeable until they first publish, on the instance's account domain
(ACCOUNT_DOMAIN, else the server's host; the instance info names it), so
`raisondetredev@halkyon.eu`; a display name, a bio, up to four links and
an avatar. The table is server only: the app gets a Profile without the
person's id. ProfileEndpoint (identified only) reads, saves and removes
the caller's own; ProfilesEndpoint finds anyone's by handle.
An avatar is a PNG of at most 1 MB that the app draws anew from the
picture chosen, its middle square at 400 pixels, so a photo's metadata
never leaves the device. The server keeps it in the public storage named
by its content, so its URL tells nothing about whose it is, and deletes it
once no profile shows it. Deleting a person deletes their profile and its
picture.
In the app, the Profile tab holds the profile as a form, laid out as the
old app's; anonymous people are told GitHub sign-in gives them one.
Migration 20261009184924904-public-profiles creates public_profile with a
unique index on the person and one on the handle in lower case; it touches
no other table, and the old server never sees it.
