If using the script remotely, there's no particularly convincing reason
to disable certificate verification, as this makes the connection
interceptible.
If on the other hand, the script is used locally (the most common use
case), you can simply target the HTTP listener and avoid TLS altogether.
This is what the script already attempts to do if passed a homeserver
configuration YAML file.
Of note:
* No untyped defs in `register_new_matrix_user`
This one might be contraversial. `request_registration` has three
dependency-injection arguments used for testing. I'm removing the
injection of the `requests` module and using `unitest.mock.patch` in the
test cases instead.
Doing `reveal_type(requests)` and `reveal_type(requests.get)` before the
change:
```
synapse/_scripts/register_new_matrix_user.py:45: note: Revealed type is "Any"
synapse/_scripts/register_new_matrix_user.py:46: note: Revealed type is "Any"
```
And after:
```
synapse/_scripts/register_new_matrix_user.py:44: note: Revealed type is "types.ModuleType"
synapse/_scripts/register_new_matrix_user.py:45: note: Revealed type is "def (url: Union[builtins.str, builtins.bytes], params: Union[Union[_typeshed.SupportsItems[Union[builtins.str, builtins.bytes, builtins.int, builtins.float], Union[builtins.str, builtins.bytes, builtins.int, builtins.float, typing.Iterable[Union[builtins.str, builtins.bytes, builtins.int, builtins.float]], None]], Tuple[Union[builtins.str, builtins.bytes, builtins.int, builtins.float], Union[builtins.str, builtins.bytes, builtins.int, builtins.float, typing.Iterable[Union[builtins.str, builtins.bytes, builtins.int, builtins.float]], None]], typing.Iterable[Tuple[Union[builtins.str, builtins.bytes, builtins.int, builtins.float], Union[builtins.str, builtins.bytes, builtins.int, builtins.float, typing.Iterable[Union[builtins.str, builtins.bytes, builtins.int, builtins.float]], None]]], builtins.str, builtins.bytes], None] =, data: Union[Any, None] =, headers: Union[Any, None] =, cookies: Union[Any, None] =, files: Union[Any, None] =, auth: Union[Any, None] =, timeout: Union[Any, None] =, allow_redirects: builtins.bool =, proxies: Union[Any, None] =, hooks: Union[Any, None] =, stream: Union[Any, None] =, verify: Union[Any, None] =, cert: Union[Any, None] =, json: Union[Any, None] =) -> requests.models.Response"
```
* Drive-by comment in `synapse.storage.types`
* No untyped defs in `synapse_port_db`
This was by far the most painful. I'm happy to break this up into
smaller pieces for review if it's not managable as-is.

Removes all redundant `# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-` lines from files, as python 3 automatically reads source code as utf-8 now.

When server URL provided to register_new_matrix_user includes path
component (e.g. "http://localhost:8008/"), the command fails with
"ERROR! Received 400 Bad Request". Stripping trailing slash from the
server_url command argument makes sure combined endpoint URL remains
valid.

Allow for the creation of a support user.
A support user can access the server, join rooms, interact with other users, but does not appear in the user directory nor does it contribute to monthly active user limits.
