Turn off notifications on follow api #1108

When you follow someone via the api, we should be able to turn off notifications.

I think this issue could be solved by working on issue #209

That would be on the client. We want to be able to follow many people without

  1. spamming all followers(user x followed y)
  2. emailing people followed. We want to turn both or one on and off.

I understand. I have no clue about how to do that. Maybe in the meanwhile you can use Dianara client as workaround: you can turn on/off a Dianara setting to not spam followers when following/unfollowing accounts (the notification is sent to the account you follow/unfollow only). It does not affect to mail notifications, though. If you run your own server you can turn on/off notifications at will, but that would affect all the users in the server.
