Digest 2.10 makes webhooks reliable.

## Retries

A delivery that receives no 2xx is retried: after one minute, then five, then twenty-five, and so on up to five hours between attempts, for 24 hours in total. Each attempt carries the same event id, so a receiver can de-duplicate.

## The log

Webhooks, then any endpoint, then Deliveries: every event, every attempt, the status code and the response body we received. Redeliver any event by hand from the same page.

## Signatures

Every delivery is signed with the endpoint's secret in `X-Digest-Signature`. Verification examples for six languages are in the docs. Rotate the secret from the endpoint page; the old one is honoured for an hour.

## Changed

An endpoint that fails every delivery for three days is disabled and its owner emailed. Previously it was disabled silently after one day.

## Fixed

- Events created during a deploy could be delivered out of order (#4210).
