Fixes https://github.com/element-hq/synapse/issues/17274, hopefully.
Basically, old versions of Synapse could advance streams without
persisting anything in the DB (fixed in #17229). On restart those
updates would get lost, and so the position of the stream would revert
to an older position. If this happened across an upgrade to a later
Synapse version which included #17215, then sync could get blocked
indefinitely (until the stream advanced to the position in the token).
We fix this by bounding the stream positions we'll wait for to the
maximum position of the underlying stream ID generator.
During the migration the automated script to update the copyright
headers accidentally got rid of some of the existing copyright lines.
Reinstate them.
Part of #9744
Removes all redundant `# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-` lines from files, as python 3 automatically reads source code as utf-8 now.

The idea here is to stop people forgetting to call `check_consistency`. Folks can still just pass in `None` to the new args in `build_sequence_generator`, but hopefully they won't.
- Update black version to the latest
- Run black auto formatting over the codebase
- Run autoformatting according to [`docs/code_style.md
`](80d6dc9783/docs/code_style.md)
- Update `code_style.md` docs around installing black to use the correct version
Introduced in #9104
This wasn't picked up by the tests as this is all fine the first time you run Synapse (after upgrading), but then when you restart the wrong value is pulled from `stream_positions`.
Currently background proccesses stream the events stream use the "minimum persisted position" (i.e. `get_current_token()`) rather than the vector clock style tokens. This is broadly fine as it doesn't matter if the background processes lag a small amount. However, in extreme cases (i.e. SyTests) where we only write to one event persister the background processes will never make progress.
This PR changes it so that the `MultiWriterIDGenerator` keeps the current position of a given instance as up to date as possible (i.e using the latest token it sees if its not in the process of persisting anything), and then periodically announces that over replication. This then allows the "minimum persisted position" to advance, albeit with a small lag.
This is so we can tell what is going on when things are taking a while to start up.
The main change here is to ensure that transactions that are created during startup get correctly logged like normal transactions.
