Allow configuring the set of workers to proxy outbound federation traffic through (`outbound_federation_restricted_to`).
This is useful when you have a worker setup with `federation_sender` instances responsible for sending outbound federation requests and want to make sure *all* outbound federation traffic goes through those instances. Before this change, the generic workers would still contact federation themselves for things like profile lookups, backfill, etc. This PR allows you to set more strict access controls/firewall for all workers and only allow the `federation_sender`'s to contact the outside world.

The original code is from @erikjohnston's branches which I've gotten in-shape to merge.

I found the error in the **Before** really vague and obtuse and didn't realize port `5432` corresponded to the Postgres port until searching the codebase. It says to check the logs but that wasn't my first instinct. It's just more obvious if we just print the full thing which gives context of the error type and the traceback to the relevant area of code.
#### Before
```
$ poetry run python -m synapse.app.homeserver -c homeserver.yaml
**********************************************************************************
Error during initialisation:
connection to server at "localhost" (::1), port 5432 failed: Connection refused
Is the server running on that host and accepting TCP/IP connections?
connection to server at "localhost" (127.0.0.1), port 5432 failed: Connection refused
Is the server running on that host and accepting TCP/IP connections?
There may be more information in the logs.

```
#### After
```sh

* Add IReactorUNIX to ISynapseReactor type hint.
* Create listen_unix().
Two options, 'path' to the file and 'mode' of permissions(not umask, recommend 666 as default as
nginx/other reverse proxies write to it and it's setup as user www-data)
For the moment, leave the option to always create a PID lockfile turned on by default
* Create UnixListenerConfig and wire it up.
Rename ListenerConfig to TCPListenerConfig, then Union them together into ListenerConfig.
This spidered around a bit, but I think I got it all. Metrics and manhole have been placed
behind a conditional in case of accidental putting them onto a unix socket.
Use new helpers to get if a listener is configured for TLS, and to help create a site tag
for logging.
There are 2 TODO things in parse_listener_def() to finish up at a later point.
* Refactor SynapseRequest to handle logging correctly when using a unix socket.
This prevents an exception when an IP address can not be retrieved for a request.
* Make the 'Synapse now listening on Unix socket' log line a little prettier.
* No silent failures on generic workers when trying to use a unix socket with metrics or manhole.
* Inline variables in app/_base.py
* Update docstring for listen_unix() to remove reference to a hardcoded permission of 0o666 and add a few comments saying where the default IS declared.
* Disallow both a unix socket and a ip/port combo on the same listener resource
* Linting
* Changelog
* review: simplify how listen_unix returns(and get rid of a type: ignore)
* review: fix typo from ConfigError in app/homeserver.py
* review: roll conditional for http_options.tag into get_site_tag() helper(and add docstring)
* review: enhance the conditionals for checking if a port or path is valid, remove a TODO line
* review: Try updating comment in get_client_ip_if_available to clarify what is being retrieved and why
* Pretty up how 'Synapse now listening on Unix Socket' looks by decoding the byte string.
* review: In parse_listener_def(), raise ConfigError if neither socket_path nor port is declared(and fix a typo)
* Update mypy and mypy-zope
* Unignore assigning to LogRecord attributes
Presumably https://github.com/python/typeshed/pull/8064 makes this ok
Cherry-picked from #13521
* Remove unused ignores due to mypy ParamSpec fixes
https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/12668
Cherry-picked from #13521
* Remove additional unused ignores
* Fix new mypy complaints related to `assertGreater`
Presumably due to https://github.com/python/typeshed/pull/8077
* Changelog
* Reword changelog

This reverts commit f383b9b3ec. Other PRs
were seeing mypy failures that looked to be related to mypy-zope.
Confusingly, we didn't see this on #13521.
Revert this for now and investigate later.
Over time we've begun to use newer versions of mypy, typeshed, stub
packages---and of course we've improved our own annotations. This makes
some type ignore comments no longer necessary. I have removed them.
There was one exception: a module that imports `select.epoll`. The
ignore is redundant on Linux, but I've kept it ignored for those of us
who work on the source tree using not-Linux. (#11771)
I'm more interested in the config line which enforces this. I want
unused ignores to be reported, because I think it's useful feedback when
annotating to know when you've fixed a problem you had to previously
ignore.
* Installing extras before typechecking
Lacking an easy way to install all extras generically, let's bite the bullet and
make install the hand-maintained `all` extra before typechecking.
Now that https://github.com/matrix-org/backend-meta/pull/6 is merged to
the release/v1 branch.
* add check that gc.freeze is available before calling

Rather than hooking into the reactor loop, just add a timed task that runs every 100 ms to do the garbage collection.
Part 1 of a quest to simplify the reactor monkey-patching.
This removes the magic allowing accessing configurable
variables directly from the config object. It is now required
that a specific configuration class is used (e.g. `config.foo`
must be replaced with `config.server.foo`).
Use `gc.freeze()` on exit to exclude all existing objects from the final GC.
In testing, this sped up shutdown by up to a few seconds.
`gc.freeze()` runs in constant time, so there is little chance of performance
regression.
