This is the final piece of the jigsaw for #9595. As with other changes before this one (eg #10771), we need to make sure that we auth the auth events in the right order, and actually check that their predecessors haven't been rejected.
To do this I've reused the existing code we use when persisting outliers elsewhere.
I've removed the code for attempting to fetch missing auth_events - the events should have been present in the send_join response, so the likely reason they are missing is that we couldn't verify them, so requesting them again is unlikely to help. Instead, we simply drop any state which relies on those auth events, as we do at a backwards-extremity. See also matrix-org/complement#216 for a test for this.
* We only need to fetch users in private rooms
* Filter out `user_id` at the top
* Discard excluded users in the top loop
We weren't doing this in the "First, if they're our user" branch so this
is a bugfix.
* The caller must check that `user_id` is included
This is in the docstring. There are two call sites:
- one in `_handle_room_publicity_change`, which explicitly checks before calling;
- and another in `_handle_room_membership_event`, which returns early if
the user is excluded.
So this change is safe.
* Test joining a private room with an excluded user
* Tweak an existing test
* Changelog
* test docstring
* lint
Currently, when we receive an event whose auth_events differ from those we expect, we state-resolve between the two state sets, and check that the event passes auth based on the resolved state.
This means that it's possible for us to accept events which don't pass auth at their declared auth_events (or where the auth events themselves were rejected), leading to problems down the line like #10083.
This change means we will:
* ignore any events where we cannot find the auth events
* reject any events whose auth events were rejected
* reject any events which do not pass auth at their declared auth_events.
Together with a whole raft of previous work, this is a partial fix to #9595.
Fixes#6643.
Based on #11009.
This fixes a bug where we would accept an event whose `auth_events` include
rejected events, if the rejected event was shadowed by another `auth_event`
with same `(type, state_key)`.
The approach is to pass a list of auth events into
`check_auth_rules_for_event` instead of a dict, which of course means updating
the call sites.
This is an extension of #10956.
Found while working on the Gitter backfill script and noticed
it only happened after we sent 7 batches, https://gitlab.com/gitterHQ/webapp/-/merge_requests/2229#note_665906390
When there are more than 5 backward extremities for a given depth,
backfill will throw an error because we sliced the extremity list
to 5 but then try to iterate over the full list. This causes
us to look for state that we never fetched and we get a `KeyError`.
Before when calling `/messages` when there are more than 5 backward extremities:

```
Resolve and share `state_groups` for all historical events in batch. This also helps for showing the appropriate avatar/displayname in Element and will work whenever `/messages` has one of the historical messages as the first message in the batch.
This does have the flaw where if you just insert a single historical event somewhere, it probably won't resolve the state correctly from `/messages` or `/context` since it will grab a non historical event above or below with resolved state which never included the historical state back then. For the same reasions, this also does not work in Element between the transition from actual messages to historical messages. In the Gitter case, this isn't really a problem since all of the historical messages are in one big lump at the beginning of the room.
For a future iteration, might be good to look at `/messages` and `/context` to additionally add the `state` for any historical messages in that batch.

How are the `state_groups` shared? To illustrate the `state_group` sharing, see this example:
**Before** (new `state_group` for every event 😬, very inefficient):

* Pull out `_handle_room_membership_event`
* Discard excluded users early
* Rearrange logic so the change is membership is effectively switched over. See PR for rationale.
This splits apart `handle_new_user` into a function which adds an entry to the `user_directory` and a function which updates the room sharing tables. I plan to continue doing more of this kind of refactoring to clarify the implementation.
The shared ratelimit function was replaced with a dedicated
RequestRatelimiter class (accessible from the HomeServer
object).
Other properties were copied to each sub-class that inherited
from BaseHandler.
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`).
Fix a long-standing bug where a batch of user directory changes would be
silently dropped if the server left a room early in the batch.

We correctly allowed using the MSC2716 batch endpoint for
the room creator in existing room versions but accidentally didn't track
the events because of a logic flaw.
This prevented you from connecting subsequent chunks together because it would
throw the unknown batch ID error.
We only want to process MSC2716 events when:
- The room version supports MSC2716
- Any room where the homeserver has the `msc2716_enabled` experimental feature enabled and the event is from the room creator
`_check_event_auth` is only called in two places, and only one of those sets
`send_on_behalf_of`. Warming the cache isn't really part of auth anyway, so
moving it out makes a lot more sense.
There's little point in doing a fancy state reconciliation dance if the event
itself is invalid.
Likewise, there's no point checking it again in `_check_for_soft_fail`.

* Introduce `should_include_local_users_in_dir`
We exclude three kinds of local users from the user_directory tables. At
present we don't consistently exclude all three in the same places. This
commit introduces a new function to gather those exclusion conditions
together. Because we have to handle local and remote users in different
ways, I've made that function only consider the case of remote users.
It's the caller's responsibility to make the local versus remote
distinction clear and correct.
A test fixup is required. The test now hits a path which makes db
queries against the users table. The expected rows were missing, because
we were using a dummy user that hadn't actually been registered.
We also add new test cases to covert the exclusion logic.
----
By my reading this makes these changes:
* When an app service user registers or changes their profile, they will
_not_ be added to the user directory. (Previously only support and
deactivated users were excluded). This is consistent with the logic that
rebuilds the user directory. See also [the discussion
here](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/10914#discussion_r716859548).
* When rebuilding the directory, exclude support and disabled users from
room sharing tables. Previously only appservice users were excluded.
* Exclude all three categories of local users when rebuilding the
directory. Previously `_populate_user_directory_process_users` didn't do
any exclusion.

This fixes a "Event not signed by authorising server" error when
transition room member from join -> join, e.g. when updating a
display name or avatar URL for restricted rooms.
