Several configuration sections are using separate settings for custom template directories, which can be confusing. This PR adds a new top-level configuration for a custom template directory which is then used for every module. The only exception is the consent templates, since the consent template directory require a specific hierarchy, so it's probably better that it stays separate from everything else.
Part of #9744
Removes all redundant `# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-` lines from files, as python 3 automatically reads source code as utf-8 now.

Running `dmypy run` will do a `mypy` check while spinning up a daemon
that makes rerunning `dmypy run` a lot faster.
`dmypy` doesn't support `follow_imports = silent` and has
`local_partial_types` enabled, so this PR enables those options and
fixes the issues that were newly raised. Note that `local_partial_types`
will be enabled by default in upcoming mypy releases.
There's some prelimiary work here to pull out the construction of a jinja environment to a separate function.
I wanted to load the template at display time rather than load time, so that it's easy to update on the fly. Honestly, I think we should do this with all our templates: the risk of ending up with malformed templates is far outweighed by the improved turnaround time for an admin trying to update them.
There are going to be a couple of paths to get to the final step of SSO reg, and I want the URL in the browser to consistent. So, let's move the final step onto a separate path, which we redirect to.
The final part (for now) of my work to implement a username picker in synapse itself. The idea is that we allow
`UsernameMappingProvider`s to return `localpart=None`, in which case, rather than redirecting the browser
back to the client, we redirect to a username-picker resource, which allows the user to enter a username.
We *then* complete the SSO flow (including doing the client permission checks).
The static resources for the username picker itself (in
https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/tree/rav/username_picker/synapse/res/username_picker)
are essentially lifted wholesale from
https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-synapse-saml-mozilla/tree/master/matrix_synapse_saml_mozilla/res.
As the comment says, we might want to think about making them customisable, but that can be a follow-up.
Fixes#8876.
