Make mastodon verification work with public link on profile page

[hoernschen]

I saw some days ago that nextcloud has a profile page and that you can display different social media and contact information there. That is great! I have a super small enhancement request.
Mastodon has a verification process, where when you link a page to your profile it searches for the mastodon profile url on that page. If it finds the link there it displays the page as verified. More information on that here:

With the nextcloud profile that doesn't work yet. The missing piece is rel="me" in the a-tag. If you would add that the page should be displayed as verified in mastodon.

Looks harmless enough. Also looks like GitHub already supports this in its profiles.

Only relevant to those with public/semi-public profiles on their Nextcloud instance of course.

Hey. I tackled this one.

I think this is an awesome feature. But I wonder how many people will use it if they don't know that it exists.

Perhaps a modal could be displayed after a Fedi handle is added? Or maybe a short bit of text under the input box? Something like "Learn how to use Nextcloud to verify yourself on Mastodon." With a link to a Doc?
