Description
### Quick summary
WordPress automatically adds an `@mention` when replying to someone.
I'm not sure an ActivityPub API client should expect the server to automatically add the mention on a reply.
The second mention does not appear on the wordpress site, but does appear in the activitypub representation, so it is federated as such
### Steps to reproduce
Using an ActivityPub API client
1. Post a status
2. Have someone reply
3. Reply to the reply, adding a `@mention`
4. See double mention via browser.pub or on remote post being replied to.
