Also:
* rename VerifyKeyRequest->VerifyJsonRequest
* calculate key_ids on VerifyJsonRequest construction
* refactor things to pass around VerifyJsonRequests instead of 4-tuples
When handling incoming federation requests, make sure that we have an
up-to-date copy of the signing key.
We do not yet enforce the validity period for event signatures.
This commit adds two config options:
* `restrict_public_rooms_to_local_users`
Requires auth to fetch the public rooms directory through the CS API and disables fetching it through the federation API.
* `require_auth_for_profile_requests`
When set to `true`, requires that requests to `/profile` over the CS API are authenticated, and only returns the user's profile if the requester shares a room with the profile's owner, as per MSC1301.
MSC1301 also specifies a behaviour for federation (only returning the profile if the server asking for it shares a room with the profile's owner), but that's currently really non-trivial to do in a not too expensive way. Next step is writing down a MSC that allows a HS to specify which user sent the profile query. In this implementation, Synapse won't send a profile query over federation if it doesn't believe it already shares a room with the profile's owner, though.
Groups have been intentionally omitted from this commit.
* make 'event_id' a required parameter in federated state requests
As per the spec: https://matrix.org/docs/spec/server_server/r0.1.1.html#id40

This allows the OpenID userinfo endpoint to be active even if the
federation resource is not active. The OpenID userinfo endpoint
is called by integration managers to verify user actions using the
client API OpenID access token. Without this verification, the
integration manager cannot know that the access token is valid.
The OpenID userinfo endpoint will be loaded in the case that either
"federation" or "openid" resource is defined. The new "openid"
resource is defaulted to active in default configuration.

It's quite important that get_missing_events returns the *latest* events in the
room; however we were pulling event ids out of the database until we got *at
least* 10, and then taking the *earliest* of the results.
We also shouldn't really be relying on depth, and should be checking the
room_id.

We need to do a bit more validation when we get a server name, but don't want
to be re-doing it all over the shop, so factor out a separate
parse_and_validate_server_name, and do the extra validation.
Also, use it to verify the server name in the config file.
Make sure that server_names used in auth headers are sane, and reject them with
a sensible error code, before they disappear off into the depths of the system.
There were a bunch of places where we fire off a process to happen in the
background, but don't have any exception handling on it - instead relying on
the unhandled error being logged when the relevent deferred gets
garbage-collected.
This is unsatisfactory for a number of reasons:
- logging on garbage collection is best-effort and may happen some time after
the error, if at all
- it can be hard to figure out where the error actually happened.
- it is logged as a scary CRITICAL error which (a) I always forget to grep for
and (b) it's not really CRITICAL if a background process we don't care about
fails.
So this is an attempt to add exception handling to everything we fire off into
the background.
The API is now under
/groups/$group_id/setting/m.join_policy
and expects a JSON blob of the shape
```json
{
"m.join_policy": {
"type": "invite"
}
}
```
where "invite" could alternatively be "open".
