Fix MSC3030 `/timestamp_to_event` returning `outliers` that it has no idea whether are near a gap or not (#14215) Fix MSC3030 `/timestamp_to_event` endpoint returning `outliers` that it has no idea whether are near a gap or not (and therefore unable to determine whether it's actually the closest event). The reason Synapse doesn't know whether an `outlier` is next to a gap is because our gap checks rely on entries in the `event_edges`, `event_forward_extremeties`, and `event_backward_extremities` tables which is [not the case for `outliers`](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/2c63cdcc3f1aa4625e947de3c23e0a8133c61286/docs/development/room-dag-concepts.md#outliers). Also fixes MSC3030 Complement `can_paginate_after_getting_remote_event_from_timestamp_to_event_endpoint` test flake. Although this acted flakey in Complement, if `sync_partial_state` raced and beat us before `/timestamp_to_event`, then even if we retried the failing `/context` request it wouldn't work until we made this Synapse change. With this PR, Synapse will never return an `outlier` event so that test will always go and ask over federation. Fix https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13944 ### Why did this fail before? Why was it flakey? Sleuthing the server logs on the [CI failure](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/actions/runs/3149623842/jobs/5121449357#step:5:5805), it looks like `hs2:/timestamp_to_event` found `$NP6-oU7mIFVyhtKfGvfrEQX949hQX-T-gvuauG6eurU` as an `outlier` event locally. Then when we went and asked for it via `/context`, since it's an `outlier`, it was filtered out of the results -> `You don't have permission to access that event.` This is reproducible when `sync_partial_state` races and persists `$NP6-oU7mIFVyhtKfGvfrEQX949hQX-T-gvuauG6eurU` as an `outlier` before we evaluate `get_event_for_timestamp(...)`. To consistently reproduce locally, just add a delay at the [start of `get_event_for_timestamp(...)`](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/cb20b885cb4bd1648581dd043a184d86fc8c7a00/synapse/handlers/room.py#L1470-L1496) so it always runs after `sync_partial_state` completes. ```py from twisted.internet import task as twisted_task d = twisted_task.deferLater(self.hs.get_reactor(), 3.5) await d ``` In a run where it passes, on `hs2`, `get_event_for_timestamp(...)` finds a different event locally which is next to a gap and we request from a closer one from `hs1` which gets backfilled. And since the backfilled event is not an `outlier`, it's returned as expected during `/context`. With this PR, Synapse will never return an `outlier` event so that test will always go and ask over federation.
