Improve the modules doc (#10758)

* Split up the documentation in several files rather than one huge one
* Add examples for each callback category
* Other niceties like fixing https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10632
* Add titles to callbacks so they're easier to find in the navigation panels and link to

docs/modules/account_validity_callbacks.md

+# Account validity callbacks
+
+Account validity callbacks allow module developers to add extra steps to verify the
+validity on an account, i.e. see if a user can be granted access to their account on the
+Synapse instance. Account validity callbacks can be registered using the module API's
+`register_account_validity_callbacks` method.
+
+The available account validity callbacks are:
+
+### `is_user_expired`
+
+```python
+async def is_user_expired(user: str) -> Optional[bool]
+```
+
+Called when processing any authenticated request (except for logout requests). The module
+can return a `bool` to indicate whether the user has expired and should be locked out of
+their account, or `None` if the module wasn't able to figure it out. The user is
+represented by their Matrix user ID (e.g. `@alice:example.com`).
+
+If the module returns `True`, the current request will be denied with the error code
+`ORG_MATRIX_EXPIRED_ACCOUNT` and the HTTP status code 403. Note that this doesn't
+invalidate the user's access token.
+
+### `on_user_registration`
+
+```python
+async def on_user_registration(user: str) -> None
+```
+
+Called after successfully registering a user, in case the module needs to perform extra
+operations to keep track of them. (e.g. add them to a database table). The user is
+represented by their Matrix user ID.
