Add helper base class for generating new replication endpoints

This will hopefully reduce the boiler plate required to implement new
internal HTTP requests.

+    """Helper base class for defining new replication HTTP endpoints.
+
+    This creates an endpoint under `/_synapse/replication/:NAME/:PATH_ARGS..`
+    (with an `/:txn_id` prefix for cached requests.), where NAME is a name,
+    PATH_ARGS are a tuple of parameters to be encoded in the URL.
+
+    For example, if `NAME` is "send_event" and `PATH_ARGS` is `("event_id",)`,
+    with `CACHE` set to true then this generates an endpoint:
+
+        /_synapse/replication/send_event/:event_id/:txn_id
+
+    For POST requests the payload is serialized to json and sent as the body,
+    while for GET requests the payload is added as query parameters. See
+    `_serialize_payload` for details.
+
+    Incoming requests are handled by overriding `_handle_request`. Servers
+    must call `register` to register the path with the HTTP server.
+
+    Requests can be sent by calling the client returned by `make_client`.
+
+    Attributes:
+        NAME (str): A name for the endpoint, added to the path as well as used
+            in logging and metrics.
+        PATH_ARGS (tuple[str]): A list of parameters to be added to the path.
+            Adding parameters to the path (rather than payload) can make it
+            easier to follow along in the log files.
+        POST (bool): True to use POST request with JSON body, or false to use
+            GET requests with query params.
+        CACHE (bool): Whether server should cache the result of the request/
+            If true then transparently adds a txn_id to all requests, and
+            `_handle_request` must return a Deferred.
+        RETRY_ON_TIMEOUT(bool): Whether or not to retry the request when a 504
+            is received.
