Indicate that following does not work when only the blog-profile is activated in the ActivityPub plugin.

I hope that I got this right and am not mistaken, but it makes sense though is not clear in the UI. If in the ActivityPub plugin the Author-Profiles are disabled and only the Blog-User is activated then the Plugin still lets me send follow requests to other ActivityPub actors, but they are not received. This leaves the user in a state where one does not know if something went wrong and if yes what might went wrong.

Using the blog-actor also for following others might be useful for quite a lot of people as I found out after talking about WordPress ActivityPub to people who might wanna use it. Any idea on how this could be solved elegantly? I would draft a pull request after having some initial feedback about this.

Good point, thank you! Together with #285 this conflicts with the notion of one-user-per-blog. But similar as the ActivityPub plugin has found this solution, maybe a change in data structure can allow per-user friends pages and thus you could also get a "blog user" friends page.

With the changes I had to do in #215, this actually became more feasible as soon as we remove the whole "user part."

@akirk This issue can be closed with the merging of #411 ?! :)
