Use the pure-python ldap3 library, which eliminates the need for a
system dependency.
Offer both a `search` and `simple_bind` mode, for more sophisticated
ldap scenarios.
- `search` tries to find a matching DN within the `user_base` while
employing the `user_filter`, then tries the bind when a single
matching DN was found.
- `simple_bind` tries the bind against a specific DN by combining the
localpart and `user_base`
Offer support for STARTTLS on a plain connection.
The configuration was changed to reflect these new possibilities.

The existing content can still be downloaded. The last upload to the

the upload API.
Renames ``load_config`` to ``load_or_generate_config``
Adds a method called ``load_config`` that just loads the
config.
The main synapse.app.homeserver will continue to use
``load_or_generate_config`` to retain backwards compat.
However new worker processes can use ``load_config`` to
load the config avoiding some of the cruft needed to generate
the config.
As the new ``load_config`` method is expected to be used by new
configs it removes support for the legacy commandline overrides
that ``load_or_generate_config`` supports
Always set the config key with an empty list, even if a list isn't specified.
This means that the codepaths are the same for both the empty list and
for a missing key. Since the behaviour is the same for both cases this
makes the code somewhat easier to reason about.
Add url_preview_ip_range_blacklist to let admins specify internal IP ranges that must not be spidered.
Add url_preview_url_blacklist to let admins specify URL patterns that must not be spidered.
Implement a custom SpiderEndpoint and associated support classes to implement url_preview_ip_range_blacklist
Add commentary and generally address PR feedback
