fix(ap): /ap/notes/:id redirects browsers to the human post page

Hitting an AP note URL in a browser returned raw activity+json. Now it
content-negotiates like the actor route: HTML clients get a 302 to the
readable post page (post + its fediverse reactions); AP clients still get
the Note JSON. Outbound replies redirect to the source they reply to.
