I've also added `presence.enabled: true` to the example, as that's the new way to enable presence (the `presence_enabled` option has been deprecated).

Handle inbound events from federation asynchronously (#10272)
Fixes #9490

This will break a couple of SyTest that are expecting failures to be added to the response of a federation /send, which obviously doesn't happen now that things are asynchronous.

Two drawbacks:

    Currently there is no logic to handle any events left in the staging area after restart, and so they'll only be handled on the next incoming event in that room. That can be fixed separately.
    We now only process one event per room at a time. This can be fixed up further down the line.

Create an index.html file when generating a docs build (#10242)
Currently when a new build of the docs is created, an `index.html` file does not exist. Typically this would be generated from a`docs/README.md` file - which we have - however we're currently using [docs/README.md](394673055d/docs/README.md) to explain the docs and point to the website. It is not part of the content of the website. So we end up not having an `index.html` file, which will result in a 404 page if one tries to navigate to `https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/<docs_version>/index.html`.

This isn't a really problem for the default version of the documentation (currently `develop`), as [navigating to the top-level root](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/) of the website (without specifying a version) will [redirect](a77e6925f2/index.html (L2)) you to the Welcome and Overview page of the `develop` docs version.

However, ideally once we add a GUI for switching between versions, we'll want to send the user to `matrix-org.github.io/synapse/<version>/index.html`, which currently isn't generated.

This PR modifies the CI that builds the docs to simply copy the rendered [Welcome & Overview page](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/develop/welcome_and_overview.html) to `index.html`.

Improve validation for send_{join,leave,knock} (#10225)
The idea here is to stop people sending things that aren't joins/leaves/knocks through these endpoints: previously you could send anything you liked through them. I wasn't able to find any security holes from doing so, but it doesn't sound like a good thing.

MSC2918 Refresh tokens implementation (#9450)
This implements refresh tokens, as defined by MSC2918

This MSC has been implemented client side in Hydrogen Web: vector-im/hydrogen-web#235

The basics of the MSC works: requesting refresh tokens on login, having the access tokens expire, and using the refresh token to get a new one.

763dba77ef Synapse 1.37.0rc1 (2021-06-24)
==============================
 
 This release deprecates the current spam checker interface. See the [upgrade notes](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/develop/upgrade#deprecation-of-the-current-spam-checker-interface) for more information on how to update to the new generic module interface.
 
 This release also removes support for fetching and renewing TLS certificates using the ACME v1 protocol, which has been fully decommissioned by Let's Encrypt on June 1st 2021. Admins previously using this feature should use a [reverse proxy](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/develop/reverse_proxy.html) to handle TLS termination, or use an external ACME client (such as [certbot](https://certbot.eff.org/)) to retrieve a certificate and key and provide them to Synapse using the `tls_certificate_path` and `tls_private_key_path` configuration settings.
 
 Features
 --------
 
 - Implement "room knocking" as per [MSC2403](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2403). Contributed by @Sorunome and anoa. ([\#6739](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/6739), [\#9359](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9359), [\#10167](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10167), [\#10212](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10212), [\#10227](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10227))
 - Add experimental support for backfilling history into rooms ([MSC2716](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2716)). ([\#9247](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9247))
 - Implement a generic interface for third-party plugin modules. ([\#10062](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10062), [\#10206](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10206))
 - Implement config option `sso.update_profile_information` to sync SSO users' profile information with the identity provider each time they login. Currently only displayname is supported. ([\#10108](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10108))
 - Ensure that errors during startup are written to the logs and the console. ([\#10191](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10191))
 
 Bugfixes
 --------

Merge tag 'v1.37.0rc1' into develop

Synapse 1.37.0rc1 (2021-06-24)
==============================

This release deprecates the current spam checker interface. See the [upgrade notes](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/develop/upgrade#deprecation-of-the-current-spam-checker-interface) for more information on how to update to the new generic module interface.

This release also removes support for fetching and renewing TLS certificates using the ACME v1 protocol, which has been fully decommissioned by Let's Encrypt on June 1st 2021. Admins previously using this feature should use a [reverse proxy](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/develop/reverse_proxy.html) to handle TLS termination, or use an external ACME client (such as [certbot](https://certbot.eff.org/)) to retrieve a certificate and key and provide them to Synapse using the `tls_certificate_path` and `tls_private_key_path` configuration settings.

Features
--------

- Implement "room knocking" as per [MSC2403](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2403). Contributed by @Sorunome and anoa.

Convert UPGRADE.rst to markdown (#10166)
This PR:

* Converts UPGRADE.rst to markdown and moves the contents into the `docs/` directory.
* Updates the contents of UPGRADE.rst to point to the website instead.
* Updates links around the codebase that point to UPGRADE.rst.

`pandoc` + some manual editing was used to convert from RST to md.

Improve the reliability of auto-joining remote rooms (#10237)
If a room is remote and we don't have a user in it, always try to join it. It might fail if the room is invite-only, but we don't have a user to invite with, so at this point it's the best we can do.

Fixes #10233 (at least to some extent)

Drop Origin & Accept from Access-Control-Allow-Headers value (#10114)
* Drop Origin & Accept from Access-Control-Allow-Headers value

This change drops the Origin and Accept header names from the value of the
Access-Control-Allow-Headers response header sent by Synapse. Per the CORS
protocol, it’s not necessary or useful to include those header names.

Details:

Per-spec at https://fetch.spec.whatwg.org/#forbidden-header-name, Origin
is a “forbidden header name” set by the browser and that frontend
JavaScript code is never allowed to set.

So the value of Access-Control-Allow-Headers isn’t relevant to Origin or
in general to other headers set by the browser itself — the browser
never ever consults the Access-Control-Allow-Headers value to confirm
that it’s OK for the request to include an Origin header.

And per-spec at https://fetch.spec.whatwg.org/#cors-safelisted-request-header,
Accept is a “CORS-safelisted request-header”, which means that browsers
allow requests to contain the Accept header regardless of whether the
Access-Control-Allow-Headers value contains "Accept".

So it’s unnecessary for the Access-Control-Allow-Headers to explicitly
include Accept. Browsers will not perform a CORS preflight for requests
containing an Accept request header.
