- use activitypub.Author instead of custom dict
- prefer to display "Author of [title]" from ISNI data instead of short description
- merge isni and db authors for edit_book display
- fix edit_book template to use changed data
- rename some functions in utils/isni.py
- add timeout to isni API call
- use activitypub.Author dataclass instead of bespoke dict
- display isni authors as "Author of" first title in ISNI record if possible
- sensible fallbacks if title info unavailable in isni record
When an existing author is selected as a new author when editing a book,
if they have an ISNI ID recorded we check the record and augment the local
database record from the ISNI data.
Also dedupes author aliases for this feature and when adding a completely
new author.
Check the authors suggested from the local DB for a matching ISNI when pulling authors from ISNI.
i.e. we do not want to suggest the same author twice when we *know* it is the same author.
If a user selects an author pulled from the ISNI service when editing a book, use any relevant data from ISNI to populate the new author record.
This includes
- bio
- aliases
- isni
- wikipedia url
- viaf
The OCLC server claims that the xml payload is encoded as latin1 (ISO-8859-1).
This causes Requests to incorrectly encode things as latin1, when actually everything is (thank goodness) UTF-8.
We can fix it by just telling Requests that it is really UTF-8

Together with #434 and #435, this fixes#429. Use the user-agent to
determine if the call is coming from a BookWyrm instance or not. If it's
not, give a pure activitypub representation for the status. Otherwise,
give a BookWyrm one, to allow for a complete integration between
instances.
