In most cases, we limit the number of prev_events for a given event to 10
events. This fixes a particular code path which created events with huge
numbers of prev_events.
Doing this I learned e.message was pretty shortlived, added in 2.6,
they realized it was a bad idea and deprecated it in 2.7

The `@cached` decorator on `KeyStore._get_server_verify_key` was missing
its `num_args` parameter, which meant that it was returning the wrong key for
any server which had more than one recorded key.
By way of a fix, change the default for `num_args` to be *all* arguments. To
implement that, factor out a common base class for `CacheDescriptor` and `CacheListDescriptor`.
Instead of calculating the size of the cache repeatedly, which can take
a long time now that it can use a callback, instead cache the size and
update that on insertion and deletion.
This requires changing the cache descriptors to have two caches, one for
pending deferreds and the other for the actual values. There's no reason
to evict from the pending deferreds as they won't take up any more
memory.
We might as well treat all refresh_tokens as invalid. Just return a 403 from
/tokenrefresh, so that we don't have a load of dead, untestable code hanging
around.
Still TODO: removing the table from the schema.
Allows delegating the password auth to an external module. This also
moves the LDAP auth to using this system, allowing it to be removed from
the synapse tree entirely in the future.
for the email and http pushers rather than trying to make a single
method that will work with their conflicting requirements.
The http pusher needs to get the messages in ascending stream order, and
doesn't want to miss a message.
The email pusher needs to get the messages in descending timestamp order,
and doesn't mind if it misses messages.
