Research direction

Start with lib/private/Accounts/AccountManager.php around line 725, then trace the update flow from apps/settings/lib/BackgroundJobs/VerifyUserData.php. Reproduce the failure by running php cron.php and determine why the fediverse account property reaches sanitization as invalid. Done means cron.php completes without this exception.
