It's more natural for the user if the bit that takes them away
from the registration flow comes last. Adding the dummy stage allows
us to do the stages in this order without the ambiguity.
This allows the client to complete the email last which is more
natual for the user. Without this stage, if the client would
complete the recaptcha (and terms, if enabled) stages and then the
registration request would complete because you've now completed a
flow, even if you were intending to complete the flow that's the
same except has email auth at the end.
Adding a dummy auth stage to the recaptcha-only flow means it's
always unambiguous which flow the client was trying to complete.
Longer term we should think about changing the protocol so the
client explicitly says which flow it's trying to complete.

This commit adds two config options:
* `restrict_public_rooms_to_local_users`
Requires auth to fetch the public rooms directory through the CS API and disables fetching it through the federation API.
* `require_auth_for_profile_requests`
When set to `true`, requires that requests to `/profile` over the CS API are authenticated, and only returns the user's profile if the requester shares a room with the profile's owner, as per MSC1301.
MSC1301 also specifies a behaviour for federation (only returning the profile if the server asking for it shares a room with the profile's owner), but that's currently really non-trivial to do in a not too expensive way. Next step is writing down a MSC that allows a HS to specify which user sent the profile query. In this implementation, Synapse won't send a profile query over federation if it doesn't believe it already shares a room with the profile's owner, though.
Groups have been intentionally omitted from this commit.
By default the homeserver will use the identity server used during the
binding of the 3PID to unbind the 3PID. However, we need to allow
clients to explicitly ask the homeserver to unbind via a particular
identity server, for the case where the 3PID was bound out of band from
the homeserver.
Implements MSC915.
Adds a new method, check_3pid_auth, which gives password providers
the chance to allow authentication with third-party identifiers such
as email or msisdn.
Currently the explanation message is sent to the abuse room before any
users are forced joined, which means it tends to get lost in the backlog
of joins.
So instead we send the message *after* we've forced joined everyone.

This allows registration to be handled by a worker, though the actual
write to the database still happens on master.
Note: due to the in-memory session map all registration requests must be
handled by the same worker.
Allow for the creation of a support user.
A support user can access the server, join rooms, interact with other users, but does not appear in the user directory nor does it contribute to monthly active user limits.
This is mostly factoring out the post-CAS-login code to somewhere we can reuse
it for other SSO flows, but it also fixes the userid mapping while we're at it.
* Rip out half-implemented m.login.saml2 support
This was implemented in an odd way that left most of the work to the client, in
a way that I really didn't understand. It's going to be a pain to maintain, so
let's start by ripping it out.
* drop undocumented dependency on dateutil
It turns out we were relying on dateutil being pulled in transitively by
pysaml2. There's no need for that bloat.
* Clean up the CSS for the fallback login form
I was finding this hard to work with, so simplify a bunch of things. Each
flow is now a form inside a div of class login_flow.
The login_flow class now has a fixed width, as that looks much better than each
flow having a differnt width.
* Support m.login.sso
MSC1721 renames m.login.cas to m.login.sso. This implements the change
(retaining support for m.login.cas for older clients).
* changelog
Currently when fetching state groups from the data store we make two
hits two the database: once for members and once for non-members (unless
request is filtered to one or the other). This adds needless load to the
datbase, so this PR refactors the lookup to make only a single database
hit.
Broadly three things here:
* disable W504 which seems a bit whacko
* remove a bunch of `as e` expressions from exception handlers that don't use
them
* use `r""` for strings which include backslashes
Also, we don't use pep8 any more, so we can get rid of the duplicate config
there.
