When processing an incoming event over federation, we may try and
resolve any unexpected differences in auth events. This is a
non-essential process and so should not stop the processing of the event
if it fails (e.g. due to the remote disappearing or not implementing the
necessary endpoints).
Fixes#3330
Replaces DEFAULT_ROOM_VERSION constant with a method that first checks the config, then returns a hardcoded value if the option is not present.
That hardcoded value is now located in the server.py config file.
I was staring at this function trying to figure out wtf it was actually
doing. This is (hopefully) a non-functional refactor which makes it a bit
clearer.
This commit adds two config options:
* `restrict_public_rooms_to_local_users`
Requires auth to fetch the public rooms directory through the CS API and disables fetching it through the federation API.
* `require_auth_for_profile_requests`
When set to `true`, requires that requests to `/profile` over the CS API are authenticated, and only returns the user's profile if the requester shares a room with the profile's owner, as per MSC1301.
MSC1301 also specifies a behaviour for federation (only returning the profile if the server asking for it shares a room with the profile's owner), but that's currently really non-trivial to do in a not too expensive way. Next step is writing down a MSC that allows a HS to specify which user sent the profile query. In this implementation, Synapse won't send a profile query over federation if it doesn't believe it already shares a room with the profile's owner, though.

By default the homeserver will use the identity server used during the
binding of the 3PID to unbind the 3PID. However, we need to allow
clients to explicitly ask the homeserver to unbind via a particular
identity server, for the case where the 3PID was bound out of band from
the homeserver.
Implements MSC915.
This changes the behaviour from using the server specified trusted
identity server to using the IS that used during the binding of the
3PID, if known.
This is the behaviour specified by MSC1915.
Primarily this fixes a bug in the handling of remote users joining a
room where the server sent out the presence for all local users in the
room to all servers in the room.
We also change to using the state delta stream, rather than the
distributor, as it will make it easier to split processing out of the
master process (as well as being more flexible).
Finally, when sending presence states to newly joined servers we filter
out old presence states to reduce the number sent. Initially we filter
out states that are offline and have a last active more than a week ago,
though this can be changed down the line.
Fixes#3962
Adds a new method, check_3pid_auth, which gives password providers
the chance to allow authentication with third-party identifiers such
as email or msisdn.
