This PR remove the cache for the `get_shared_rooms_for_users` storage method (the db method driving the experimental "what rooms do I share with this user?" feature: [MSC2666](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2666)). Currently subsequent requests to the endpoint will return the same result, even if your shared rooms with that user have changed.
The cache was added in https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/7785, but we forgot to ensure it was invalidated appropriately.
Upon attempting to invalidate it, I found that the cache had to be entirely invalidated whenever a user (remote or local) joined or left a room. This didn't make for a very useful cache, especially for a function that may or may not be called very often. Thus, I've opted to remove it instead of invalidating it.
This PR adds a homeserver config option, `user_directory.prefer_local_users`, that when enabled will show local users higher in user directory search results than remote users. This option is off by default.
Note that turning this on doesn't necessarily mean that remote users will always be put below local users, but they should be assuming all other ranking factors (search query match, profile information present etc) are identical.
This is useful for, say, University networks that are openly federating, but want to prioritise local students and staff in the user directory over other random users.

- Update `code_style.md` docs around installing black to use the correct version
Remove conflicting sqlite tables that throw sqlite3.OperationalError: object name reserved for internal use: event_search_content when running the twisted unit tests.
Fix#8996
Fixes#8966.
* Factor out build_synapse_client_resource_tree
Start a function which will mount resources common to all workers.
* Move sso init into build_synapse_client_resource_tree
... so that we don't have to do it for each worker
* Fix SSO-login-via-a-worker
Expose the SSO login endpoints on workers, like the documentation says.
* Update workers config for new endpoints
Add documentation for endpoints recently added (#8942, #9017, #9262)
* remove submit_token from workers endpoints list
this *doesn't* work on workers (yet).
* changelog
* Add a comment about the odd path for SAML2Resource
This expands the current shadow-banning feature to be usable via
the admin API and adds documentation for it.
A shadow-banned users receives successful responses to their
client-server API requests, but the events are not propagated into rooms.
Shadow-banning a user should be used as a tool of last resort and may lead
to confusing or broken behaviour for the client.

We have seen a failure mode here where if there are many in flight
unfinished IDs then marking an ID as finished takes a lot of CPU (as
calling deque.remove iterates over the list)
Introduced in #9104
This wasn't picked up by the tests as this is all fine the first time you run Synapse (after upgrading), but then when you restart the wrong value is pulled from `stream_positions`.
We do this by allowing a single iteration to process multiple rooms at a
time, as there are often a lot of really tiny rooms, which can massively
slow things down.
