Fix MSC3030 `/timestamp_to_event` endpoint returning `outliers` that it has no idea whether are near a gap or not (and therefore unable to determine whether it's actually the closest event). The reason Synapse doesn't know whether an `outlier` is next to a gap is because our gap checks rely on entries in the `event_edges`, `event_forward_extremeties`, and `event_backward_extremities` tables which is [not the case for `outliers`](2c63cdcc3f/docs/development/room-dag-concepts.md (outliers)).
Also fixes MSC3030 Complement `can_paginate_after_getting_remote_event_from_timestamp_to_event_endpoint` test flake. Although this acted flakey in Complement, if `sync_partial_state` raced and beat us before `/timestamp_to_event`, then even if we retried the failing `/context` request it wouldn't work until we made this Synapse change. With this PR, Synapse will never return an `outlier` event so that test will always go and ask over federation.

### Why did this fail before? Why was it flakey?
Sleuthing the server logs on the [CI failure](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/actions/runs/3149623842/jobs/5121449357#step:5:5805), it looks like `hs2:/timestamp_to_event` found `$NP6-oU7mIFVyhtKfGvfrEQX949hQX-T-gvuauG6eurU` as an `outlier` event locally. Then when we went and asked for it via `/context`, since it's an `outlier`, it was filtered out of the results -> `You don't have permission to access that event.`
This is reproducible when `sync_partial_state` races and persists `$NP6-oU7mIFVyhtKfGvfrEQX949hQX-T-gvuauG6eurU` as an `outlier` before we evaluate `get_event_for_timestamp(...)`. To consistently reproduce locally, just add a delay at the [start of `get_event_for_timestamp(...)`](cb20b885cb/synapse/handlers/room.py (L1470-L1496)) so it always runs after `sync_partial_state` completes.
```py
from twisted.internet import task as twisted_task
d = twisted_task.deferLater(self.hs.get_reactor(), 3.5)
await d
```
In a run where it passes, on `hs2`, `get_event_for_timestamp(...)` finds a different event locally which is next to a gap and we request from a closer one from `hs1` which gets backfilled. And since the backfilled event is not an `outlier`, it's returned as expected during `/context`.
With this PR, Synapse will never return an `outlier` event so that test will always go and ask over federation.
Fixes two related bugs:
* The handling of `[null]` for a `room_types` filter was incorrect.
* The ordering of arguments when providing both a network tuple
and room type field was incorrect.
MSC3316 declares that both /rooms/{roomId}/send and /rooms/{roomId}/state
should accept a ts parameter for appservices. This change expands support
to /state and adds tests.
This PR begins work on batching up events during the creation of a room. The PR splits out the creation and sending/persisting of the events. The first three events in the creation of the room-creating the room, joining the creator to the room, and the power levels event are sent sequentially, while the subsequent events are created and collected to be sent at the end of the function. This is currently done by appending them to a list and then iterating over the list to send, the next step (after this PR) would be to send and persist the collected events as a batch.
Inspired by the room batch handler, this uses previous event inserts to
pre-populate prev events during room creation, reducing the number of
queries required to create a room.

When configuring the return values of mocks, prefer awaitables from
`make_awaitable` over `defer.succeed`. `Deferred`s are only awaitable
once, so it is inappropriate for a mock to return the same `Deferred`
multiple times.
Also update `run_in_background` to support functions that return
arbitrary awaitables.

There are a bunch of places we call get_success on an immediate value, which is unnecessary. Let's rip them out, and remove the redundant functionality in get_success and friends.
The unstable identifiers are still supported if the experimental configuration
flag is enabled. The unstable identifiers will be removed in a future release.
* Add type hints to `tests/rest/client`
* newsfile
* fix imports
* add `test_account.py`
* Remove one type hint in `test_report_event.py`
* change `on_create_room` to `async`
* update new functions in `test_third_party_rules.py`
* Add `test_filter.py`
* add `test_rooms.py`
* change to `assertEquals` to `assertEqual`
* lint
This is in the context of creating new module callbacks that modules in https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse-dinsic can use, in an effort to reconcile the spam checker API in synapse-dinsic with the one in mainline.
This adds a callback that's fairly similar to user_may_create_room except it also allows processing based on the invites sent at room creation.
It's a simplification, but one that'll help make the user directory logic easier
to follow with the other changes upcoming. It's not strictly required for those
changes, but this will help simplify the resulting logic that listens for
`m.room.member` events and generally make the logic easier to follow.
This means the config option `search_all_users` ends up controlling the
search query only, and not the data we store. The cost of doing so is an
extra row in the `user_directory` and `user_directory_search` tables for
each local user which
- belongs to no public rooms
- belongs to no private rooms of size ≥ 2
I think the cost of this will be marginal (since they'll already have entries
in `users` and `profiles` anyway).
As a small upside, a homeserver whose directory was built with this
change can toggle `search_all_users` without having to rebuild their
directory.
