This change fixes two memory leaks during `trial` test runs.
Garbage collection is disabled during each test case and a gen-0 GC is
run at the end of each test. However, when the gen-0 GC is run, the
`TestCase` object usually still holds references to the `HomeServer`
used during the test. As a result, the `HomeServer` gets promoted to
gen-1 and then never garbage collected.
Fix this by periodically running full GCs.
Additionally, fix `HomeServer`s leaking after tests that touch inbound
federation due to `FederationRateLimiter`s adding themselves to a global
set, by turning the set into a `WeakSet`.
Resolves#15622.

When there are many synchronous requests waiting on a
`_PerHostRatelimiter`, each request will be started recursively just
after the previous request has completed. Under the right conditions,
this leads to stack exhaustion.
A common way for requests to become synchronous is when the remote
client disconnects early, because the homeserver is overloaded and slow
to respond.
Avoid stack exhaustion under these conditions by deferring subsequent
requests until the next reactor tick.
Fixes#14480.

Remove type hints from comments which have been added
as Python type hints. This helps avoid drift between comments
and reality, as well as removing redundant information.
Also adds some missing type hints which were simple to fill in.
Part of #9744
Removes all redundant `# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-` lines from files, as python 3 automatically reads source code as utf-8 now.

While working on https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5665 I found myself digging into the `Ratelimiter` class and seeing that it was both:
* Rather undocumented, and
* causing a *lot* of config checks
This PR attempts to refactor and comment the `Ratelimiter` class, as well as encourage config file accesses to only be done at instantiation.
Best to be reviewed commit-by-commit.
- Put the default window_size back to 1000ms (broken by #5181)
- Make the `rc_federation` config actually do something
- fix an off-by-one error in the 'concurrent' limit
- Avoid creating an unused `_PerHostRatelimiter` object for every single
incoming request
While I was going through uses of preserve_fn for other PRs, I converted places
which only use the wrapped function once to use run_in_background, to avoid
creating the function object.
