Message:

feat(video-cover): federate an animated cover as a Video attachment (not the WebP)

buildNote now prefers post.cover_video_url -> the muted loop MP4 ships as an AS2 Video attachment
instead of the animated WebP (unreliable on Mastodon + its iOS apps; the MP4 plays everywhere).
mediaType learns mp4/webm/mov; cover_video_url threaded through every buildNote source
(create/save hooks, Scheduler, outbox + featured + backfill SELECTs).
