We're rolling out new rules around the node assert library, the first of which is enforcing the use of assert/strict. This means we don't need to use the strict version of methods, as the standard version will work that way by default.
This caught some gotchas in our existing usage of assert where the lack of strict mode had unexpected results:
- Url matching needs to be done on `url.href` see aa58b354a4
- Null and undefined are not the same thing, there were a few cases of this being confused
- Particularly questionable changes in [PostExporter tests](c1a468744b) tracked [here](https://github.com/TryGhost/Team/issues/3505).
- A typo see eaac9c293a
Moving forward, using assert strict should help us to catch unexpected behaviour, particularly around nulls and undefineds during implementation.

- for mocha tests, we can add `this.retries(1)` to any flaky tests
- for playwright tests, we can add `test.describe.configure({ retries:
1})` to any `describe` block
- not a long-term solution, but it should help mitigate issues with flaky
tests in short term

-upgraded got from v9.6.0 to v11.8.6 to support following redirects (and
other fixes)
-got v12+ requires ESM, so we do not want to upgrade further at this
time
-required changes to a few libraries that use externalRequests
-mention discovery service tests updated to test for follow redirects
refs TryGhost/Team#2477
-removed post.edited as it was too inclusive
-changed to post.published, post.published.edited, post.unpublished
-blocked import and internal data from triggering mentions
This is a pretty simple way for us to track which webmentions are sent
by Ghost. Although it's easily spoofed, so are other approaches like
using a header (e.g. User-Agent). If we find that this data is being
spoofed we can look at different approach.
Becuase our receiving implementation stores the payload of the
Webmention, we'll be able to know inside Ghost which Mentions
originated from another Ghost installation, which is useful for stats
and gives us the possibility to display that information in the feed.
Longer term we might want to consider storing this data in a separate
column for Mentions, rather than the `payload` column - but that is
outside the scope of this change.
