Migrate outbound HTTP calls from Guzzle to the Http facade
Replaces every raw GuzzleHttp\Client usage (Nominatim, web.archive.org, webmention fetch/discover/send, Bridgy syndication, IndieAuth client_id lookup, contact avatar/h-card fetch, profile image download, and the CloudConvert screenshot pipeline) with Illuminate\Support\Facades\Http, and enables Http::preventStrayRequests() globally in tests so any un-faked outbound call now fails loudly instead of silently hitting the network. The CloudConvert retry-until-finished middleware in AppServiceProvider is replaced by a plain polling loop in SaveScreenshot, which also fixes a latent bug where the old middleware decoded a response object instead of its body. Bridgy syndication jobs keep their tries=1/no-retry semantics unchanged to avoid duplicate publishes. Guzzle's PSR-7 helpers (Header, UriResolver, Utils) stay in SendWebMentions since Http has no equivalent for them. Every affected test file's Guzzle MockHandler/HandlerStack boilerplate is replaced with Http::fake()/Http::sequence().
