If the script fails (or is CTRL-C'ed) between porting some of the events table and copying of the sequences then the port script will immediately die if run again due to the postgres DB having inconsistencies between sequences and tables.
The fix is to move the porting of sequences to before porting the tables, so that there is never a period where the Postgres DB is inconsistent. To do that we need to change how we port the sequences so that it calculates the values from the SQLite DB rather than the Postgres DB.
Fixes#8619
I noticed in https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/8575 that the `end_error` variable in `synapse_port_db` is set to an `Exception`, even though later we expect it to be a `str`.
This PR simply casts an exception raised to a string. I'm doing this instead of having `end_error` be of type exception as we explicitly set `end_error` to a str here:
d25eb8f370/scripts/synapse_port_db (L542-L547)
This whole file could probably use some heavy refactoring, but until then at least this fix will prevent exception contents from being hidden from us and users.
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.
This table was created in #8034 (1.20.0). It references
`ui_auth_sessions`, which is ignored, so this one should be too.

Currently we rely on `current_state_events` to figure out what rooms a
user was in and their last membership event in there. However, if the
server leaves the room then the table may be cleaned up and that
information is lost. So lets add a table that separately holds that
information.
Make `synapse_port_db` correctly create indexes in the PostgreSQL database, by having it run the background updates on the database before migrating the data.
To ensure we're migrating the right data, also block the port if the SQLite3 database still has pending or ongoing background updates.
Fixes#4877
Broadly three things here:
* disable W504 which seems a bit whacko
* remove a bunch of `as e` expressions from exception handlers that don't use
them
* use `r""` for strings which include backslashes
Also, we don't use pep8 any more, so we can get rid of the duplicate config
there.
