parse_integer and parse_string can take a request and raise errors
in case we have wrong or missing params.
This PR tries to use them more to deduplicate some code and make it
better readable
(instead of everywhere that writes a response. Or rather, the subset of places
which write responses where we haven't forgotten it).
This also means that we don't have to have the mysterious version_string
attribute in anything with a request handler.
Unfortunately it does mean that we have to pass the version string wherever we
instantiate a SynapseSite, which has been c&ped 150 times, but that is code
that ought to be cleaned up anyway really.
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".
Currently the handling of auto_join_rooms only works when a user
registers itself via public register api. Registrations via
registration_shared_secret and ModuleApi do not work
This auto_joins the users in the registration handler which enables
the auto join feature for all 3 registration paths.
This is related to issue #2725

* [ ] split config options into allowed_local_3pids and registrations_require_3pid
* [ ] simplify and comment logic for picking registration flows
* [ ] fix docstring and move check_3pid_allowed into a new util module
* [ ] use check_3pid_allowed everywhere
@erikjohnston PTAL
lets homeservers specify a whitelist for 3PIDs that users are allowed to associate with.
Typically useful for stopping people from registering with non-work emails
Non-functional refactoring to move set_password. This means that we'll be able
to properly deactivate devices and access tokens without introducing a
dependency loop.
