Description

If this is a code change, please include a summary of what you've coded, and link to the issue(s) it closes/implements.

If this is a documentation change, please briefly describe what you've changed and why.

This pull request implements a workaround for an issue where orderedItems in a featured/pinned collection would be serialized as a string (instead of a string array) if there was only one entry. This was causing issues with other implementations that assume that orderedItems will always be an array (which is apparently the correct behavior).

See mastodon/mastodon#24225 and go-fed/activity#139

Note: while this code gets us moving for now, it is far from a perfect solution because a) it's confusing and b) it's inefficient. We should definitely pull this code out if/when we get it fixed in go-fed.
