Allow selecting "prejoin" events by state keys (#14642)
* Declare new config

* Parse new config

* Read new config

* Don't use trial/our TestCase where it's not needed

Before:

```
$ time trial tests/events/test_utils.py > /dev/null

real	0m2.277s
user	0m2.186s
sys	0m0.083s
```

After:
```
$ time trial tests/events/test_utils.py > /dev/null

real	0m0.566s
user	0m0.508s
sys	0m0.056s
```

* Helper to upsert to event fields

without exceeding size limits.

* Use helper when adding invite/knock state

Now that we allow admins to include events in prejoin room state with
arbitrary state keys, be a good Matrix citizen and ensure they don't
accidentally create an oversized event.

* Changelog

* Move StateFilter tests

should have done this in #14668

* Add extra methods to StateFilter

* Use StateFilter

* Ensure test file enforces typed defs; alphabetise

* Workaround surprising get_current_state_ids

* Whoops, fix mypy

Update worker docs to update preferred settings for pusher and federation_sender (#14493)
* Fix one typo on line 3700(and apparently do something to other lines, no idea)

* Update config_documentation.md with more information about how federation_senders and pushers settings can be handled.

Specifically, that the instance map style of config does not require the special other variables that enable and disable functionality and that a single worker CAN be added to the map not only just two or more.

* Extra line here for consistency and appearance.

* Add link to sygnal repo.

* Add deprecation notice to workers.md and point to the newer alternative method of defining this functionality.

* Changelog

* Correct version number of Synapse the deprecation is happening in.

* Update quiet deprecation with simple notice and suggestion.

44741aa85b Synapse 1.69.0rc2 (2022-10-06)
==============================
 
 Please note that legacy Prometheus metric names are now deprecated and will be removed in Synapse 1.73.0.
 Server administrators should update their dashboards and alerting rules to avoid using the deprecated metric names.
 See the [upgrade notes](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/v1.69/upgrade.html#upgrading-to-v1690) for more details.
 
 Deprecations and Removals
 -------------------------
 
 - Deprecate the `generate_short_term_login_token` method in favor of an async `create_login_token` method in the Module API. ([\#13842](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13842))
 
 Internal Changes
 ----------------
 
 - Ensure Synapse v1.69 works with upcoming database changes in v1.70. ([\#14045](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14045))
 - Fix a bug introduced in Synapse v1.68.0 where messages could not be sent in rooms with non-integer `notifications` power level. ([\#14073](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14073))
 - Temporarily pin build-system requirements to workaround an incompatibility with poetry-core 1.3.0. This will be reverted before the v1.69.0 release proper, see [\#14079](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14079). ([\#14080](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14080))

Document advising against publicly exposing the Admin API and provide a usage example (#13231)

Pointed out, that the Admin API is not accessible by default from any remote computer, but only from the PC `matrix-synapse` is running on.
Added a full, working example, making sure to include the cURL flag `-X`, which needs to be prepended to `GET`, `POST`, `PUT` etc. and listing the full query string including protocol, IP address and port.

* Admin API request explanation improved

* Apply suggestions from code review

Update changelog. Reword prose.

Drop support for delegating email validation (#13192)
* Drop support for delegating email validation

Delegating email validation to an IS is insecure (since it allows the owner of
the IS to do a password reset on your HS), and has long been deprecated. It
will now cause a config error at startup.

* Update unit test which checks for email verification

Give it an `email` config instead of a threepid delegate

* Remove unused method `requestEmailToken`

* Simplify config handling for email verification

Rather than an enum and a boolean, all we need here is a single bool, which
says whether we are or are not doing email verification.

* update docs

* changelog

* upgrade.md: fix typo

* update version number

this will be in 1.64, not 1.63

* update version number

this one too

053ca5f3ca Synapse 1.60.0rc2 (2022-05-27)
==============================
 
 This release of Synapse adds a unique index to the `state_group_edges` table, in
 order to prevent accidentally introducing duplicate information (for example,
 because a database backup was restored multiple times). If your Synapse database
 already has duplicate rows in this table, this could fail with an error and
 require manual remediation.
 
 Additionally, the signature of the `check_event_for_spam` module callback has changed.
 The previous signature has been deprecated and remains working for now. Module authors
 should update their modules to use the new signature where possible.
 
 See [the upgrade notes](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/upgrade.md#upgrading-to-v1600)
 for more details.
 
 Features
 --------
 
 - Add an option allowing users to use their password to reauthenticate for privileged actions even though password login is disabled. ([\#12883](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12883))
 
 Bugfixes
 --------
 
 - Explicitly close `ijson` coroutines once we are done with them, instead of leaving the garbage collector to close them. ([\#12875](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12875))
 
 Internal Changes
 ----------------
 
 - Improve URL previews by not including the content of media tags in the generated description. ([\#12887](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12887))

Remove special-case for twisted logger (#12589)
This was originally added when we first added a `MemoryHandler` to the default
log config back in https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/8040, to ensure
that we didn't explode with an infinite loop if there was an error formatting
the logs.

Since then, we made additional improvements to logging which make this
workaround redundant. In particular:

 * we no longer attempt to log un-UTF8-decodable byte sequences, which were the
   most likely cause of an error in the first place.

 * https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/8268 ensures that in the unlikely
   case that there *is* an error, it won't cause an infinite loop.

no longer contention between the AS scheduler and AS handler on updates
to the `application_services_state` table, which will prevent serialization
errors during the complete AS txn transaction.

* Rewrites the demo documentation to be clearer, accurate, and moves it to our documentation tree.
* Improvements to the demo scripts:
	* `clean.sh` now runs `stop.sh` first to avoid zombie processes.
	* Uses more modern Synapse configuration (and removes some obsolete configuration).
	* Consistently use the HTTP ports for server name, etc.
	* Remove the `demo/etc` directory and place everything into the `demo/808x` directories.

Add a callback to allow modules to deny 3PID (#11854)
Part of the Tchap Synapse mainlining.

This allows modules to implement extra logic to figure out whether a given 3PID can be added to the local homeserver. In the Tchap use case, this will allow a Synapse module to interface with the custom endpoint /internal_info.

Add a module callback to set username at registration (#11790)
This is in the context of mainlining the Tchap fork of Synapse. Currently in Tchap usernames are derived from the user's email address (extracted from the UIA results, more specifically the m.login.email.identity step).
This change also exports the check_username method from the registration handler as part of the module API, so that a module can check if the username it's trying to generate is correct and doesn't conflict with an existing one, and fallback gracefully if not.

Add a config flag to inhibit M_USER_IN_USE during registration (#11743)
This is mostly motivated by the tchap use case, where usernames are automatically generated from the user's email address (in a way that allows figuring out the email address from the username). Therefore, it's an issue if we respond to requests on /register and /register/available with M_USER_IN_USE, because it can potentially leak email addresses (which include the user's real name and place of work).

This commit adds a flag to inhibit the M_USER_IN_USE errors that are raised both by /register/available, and when providing a username early into the registration process. This error will still be raised if the user completes the registration process but the username conflicts. This is particularly useful when using modules (https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/11790 adds a module callback to set the username of users at registration) or SSO, since they can ensure the username is unique.

More context is available in the PR that introduced this behaviour to synapse-dinsic: matrix-org/synapse-dinsic#48 - as well as the issue in the matrix-dinsic repo: matrix-org/matrix-dinsic#476
