[bugfix] update media if more than just url changes (#2970)

* refactor status media handling into separate functions, handle case of changed metadata

* update fetchRemoteAccount{Avatar,Header} to use new refactored {load,update}Attachment() functions

* whoops, nearly marked avatars as headers :')

* reformatting to improve legibility
