Previously, we would spin in a tight loop until
`update_state_for_partial_state_event` stopped raising
`FederationPullAttemptBackoffError`s. Replace the spinloop with a wait
until the backoff period has expired.

* Fix joining rooms you have been unbanned from
Since forever synapse did not allow you to join a room after you have
been unbanned from it over federation. This was not actually because of
the unban event not federating. Synapse simply used outdated state to
validate the join transition. This skips the validation if we are not in
the room and for that reason won't have the current room state.

Fixes#12801.
Complement tests are at
https://github.com/matrix-org/complement/pull/567.
Avoid blocking on full state when handling a subsequent join into a
partial state room.
Also always perform a remote join into partial state rooms, since we do
not know whether the joining user has been banned and want to avoid
leaking history to banned users.

1. `federation_client.timestamp_to_event(...)` now handles all `destination` looping and uses our generic `_try_destination_list(...)` helper.
2. Consistently handling `NotRetryingDestination` and `FederationDeniedError` across `get_pdu` , backfill, and the generic `_try_destination_list` which is used for many places we use this pattern.
3. `get_pdu(...)` now returns `PulledPduInfo` so we know which `destination` we ended up pulling the PDU from
While https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/13635 stops us from doing the slow thing after we've already done it once, this PR stops us from doing one of the slow things in the first place.

Follow-up to https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/13815 which tracks event signature failures.
With this PR, we avoid the call to the costly `_get_state_ids_after_missing_prev_event` because the signature failure will count as an attempt before and we filter events based on the backoff before calling `_get_state_ids_after_missing_prev_event` now.
For example, this will save us 156s out of the 185s total that this `matrix.org` `/messages` request. If you want to see the full Jaeger trace of this, you can drag and drop this `trace.json` into your own Jaeger, https://gist.github.com/MadLittleMods/4b12d0d0afe88c2f65ffcc907306b761
To explain this exact scenario around `/messages` -> backfill, we call `/backfill` and first check the signatures of the 100 events. We see bad signature for `$luA4l7QHhf_jadH3mI-AyFqho0U2Q-IXXUbGSMq6h6M` and `$zuOn2Rd2vsC7SUia3Hp3r6JSkSFKcc5j3QTTqW_0jDw` (both member events). Then we process the 98 events remaining that have valid signatures but one of the events references `$luA4l7QHhf_jadH3mI-AyFqho0U2Q-IXXUbGSMq6h6M` as a `prev_event`. So we have to do the whole `_get_state_ids_after_missing_prev_event` rigmarole which pulls in those same events which fail again because the signatures are still invalid.

Previously, `_resolve_state_at_missing_prevs` returned the resolved
state before an event and a partial state flag. These were unwieldy to
carry around would only ever be used to build an event context. Build
the event context directly instead.

Avoid blocking on full state in `_resolve_state_at_missing_prevs` and
return a new flag indicating whether the resolved state is partial.
Thread that flag around so that it makes it into the event context.

When a room has the partial state flag, we may not have an accurate
`m.room.member` event for event senders in the room's current state, and
so cannot perform soft fail checks correctly. Skip the soft fail check
entirely in this case.
As an alternative, we could block until we have full state, but that
would prevent us from receiving incoming events over federation, which
is undesirable.

There is a corner in `_check_event_auth` (long known as "the weird corner") where, if we get an event with auth_events which don't match those we were expecting, we attempt to resolve the diffence between our state and the remote's with a state resolution.
This isn't specced, and there's general agreement we shouldn't be doing it.
However, it turns out that the faster-joins code was relying on it, so we need to introduce something similar (but rather simpler) for that.
Whenever we want to persist an event, we first compute an event context,
which includes the state at the event and a flag indicating whether the
state is partial. After a lot of processing, we finally try to store the
event in the database, which can fail for partial state events when the
containing room has been un-partial stated in the meantime.
We detect the race as a foreign key constraint failure in the data store
layer and turn it into a special `PartialStateConflictError` exception,
which makes its way up to the method in which we computed the event
context.
To make things difficult, the exception needs to cross a replication
request: `/fed_send_events` for events coming over federation and
`/send_event` for events from clients. We transport the
`PartialStateConflictError` as a `409 Conflict` over replication and
turn `409`s back into `PartialStateConflictError`s on the worker making
the request.
All client events go through
`EventCreationHandler.handle_new_client_event`, which is called in
*a lot* of places. Instead of trying to update all the code which
creates client events, we turn the `PartialStateConflictError` into a
`429 Too Many Requests` in
`EventCreationHandler.handle_new_client_event` and hope that clients
take it as a hint to retry their request.
On the federation event side, there are 7 places which compute event
contexts. 4 of them use outlier event contexts:
`FederationEventHandler._auth_and_persist_outliers_inner`,
`FederationHandler.do_knock`, `FederationHandler.on_invite_request` and
`FederationHandler.do_remotely_reject_invite`. These events won't have
the partial state flag, so we do not need to do anything for then.
The remaining 3 paths which create events are
`FederationEventHandler.process_remote_join`,
`FederationEventHandler.on_send_membership_event` and
`FederationEventHandler._process_received_pdu`.
We can't experience the race in `process_remote_join`, unless we're
handling an additional join into a partial state room, which currently
blocks, so we make no attempt to handle it correctly.
`on_send_membership_event` is only called by
`FederationServer._on_send_membership_event`, so we catch the
`PartialStateConflictError` there and retry just once.
`_process_received_pdu` is called by `on_receive_pdu` for incoming
events and `_process_pulled_event` for backfill. The latter should never
try to persist partial state events, so we ignore it. We catch the
`PartialStateConflictError` in `on_receive_pdu` and retry just once.
Refering to the graph of code paths in
https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12988#issuecomment-1156857648
may make the above make more sense.

When we fail to persist a federation event, we kick off a task to remove
its push actions in the background, using the current logging context.
Since we don't `await` that task, we may finish our logging context
before the task finishes. There's no reason to not `await` the task, so
let's do that.

* Add auth events to events used in tests
* Move some event auth checks out to a different method
Some of the event auth checks apply to an event's auth_events, rather than the
state at the event - which means they can play no part in state
resolution. Move them out to a separate method.
* Rename check_auth_rules_for_event
Now it only checks the state-dependent auth rules, it needs a better name.
Instead, use the `room_version` property of the event we're checking.
The `room_version` was originally added as a parameter somewhere around #4482,
but really it's been redundant since #6875 added a `room_version` field to `EventBase`.
