ActivityPub: Handle clashing nicknames for the same ap id

If we get a new user (identified by ap_id) that would have the same
nickname as an existing user, give the existing user a nickname that
is prepended with the user id, as this will never clash.

This can happen when a user switches server software and that soft-
ware generates ap ids in a different way.
