This pull request deprecates `with_approval` and `always` on the client API side, and `approvalRequired` and `always` on the fedi API side, replacing them with `automatic_approval` and `manual_approval` and `automaticApproval` and `manualApproval`, respectively.
Back-compat is kept with these deprecated fields, and they're still serialized to the client API and fedi APIs respectively, in addition to the new non-deprecated properties.
This will stay the case until v0.21.0 when they'll be removed.
For the sake of not doing a massive database migration, the fields are still named `Always` and `WithApproval` in storage. I think this is probably fine!

A note on when we should set data structures linked to objects in the database to use the
bun nullzero tag -- this should only be done if the member type is a pointer, or if the
this primitive type is literally invalid with an empty value (e.g. media IDs which when
empty signifies a null database value, compared to say an account note which when empty
could mean either an empty note OR null database value).
Obviously it is a little more complex than this in practice, but keep it in mind!
