* Make _iterate_over_text easier to read by using simple data structures
* Prefer a set of tags to ignore
In my tests, it's 4x faster to check for containment in a set of this size
* Add a stack size limit to _iterate_over_text
* Continue accepting the case where there is no body element
* Use an early return instead for None

==============================
This release of Synapse adds a unique index to the `state_group_edges` table, in
order to prevent accidentally introducing duplicate information (for example,
because a database backup was restored multiple times). If your Synapse database
already has duplicate rows in this table, this could fail with an error and
require manual remediation.
Additionally, the signature of the `check_event_for_spam` module callback has changed.
The previous signature has been deprecated and remains working for now. Module authors
should update their modules to use the new signature where possible.
See [the upgrade notes](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/upgrade.md#upgrading-to-v1600)
for more details.
Features
--------
- Add an option allowing users to use their password to reauthenticate for privileged actions even though password login is disabled. ([\#12883](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12883))
Bugfixes
--------
- Explicitly close `ijson` coroutines once we are done with them, instead of leaving the garbage collector to close them. ([\#12875](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12875))
Internal Changes
----------------
- Improve URL previews by not including the content of media tags in the generated description. ([\#12887](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12887))

Makes it so that groups/communities no longer exist from a user-POV. E.g. we remove:
* All API endpoints (including Client-Server, Server-Server, and admin).
* Documented configuration options (and the experimental flag, which is now unused).
* Special handling during room upgrades.
* The `groups` section of the `/sync` response.
Enable cancellation of `GET /rooms/$room_id/members`,
`GET /rooms/$room_id/state` and
`GET /rooms/$room_id/state/$state_key/*` requests.

getClientIP was deprecated in Twisted 18.4.0, which also added
getClientAddress. The Synapse minimum version for Twisted is
currently 18.9.0, so all supported versions have the new API.
* Changes hidden read receipts to be a separate receipt type
(instead of a field on `m.read`).
* Updates the `/receipts` endpoint to accept `m.fully_read`.
* `m.login.jwt`, which was never specced and has been deprecated
since Synapse 1.16.0. (`org.matrix.login.jwt` can be used instead.)
* `uk.half-shot.msc2778.login.application_service`, which was
stabilized as part of the Matrix spec v1.2 release.
In trying to use the MSC3026 busy presence status, the user's status
would be set back to 'online' next time they synced. This change makes
it so that syncing does not affect a user's presence status if it
is currently set to 'busy': it must be removed through the presence
API.
The MSC defers to implementations on the behaviour of busy presence,
so this ought to remain compatible with the MSC.
