This is a small bug that I noticed while working on #8956.
We have a for-loop which attempts to strip all presence changes for each user except for the final one, as we don't really care about older presence:
9e19c6aab4/synapse/handlers/presence.py (L368-L371)
`new_states_dict` stores this stripped copy of latest presence state for each user, before it is... put into a new variable `new_state`, which is just overridden by the subsequent for loop.
I believe this was instead meant to override `new_states`. Without doing so, it effectively meant:
1. The for loop had no effect.
2. We were still processing old presence state for users.
- Update black version to the latest
- Run black auto formatting over the codebase
- Run autoformatting according to [`docs/code_style.md
`](80d6dc9783/docs/code_style.md)
- Update `code_style.md` docs around installing black to use the correct version

This could arguably replace the existing admin API for `/members`, however that is out of scope of this change.
This sort of endpoint is ideal for moderation use cases as well as other applications, such as needing to retrieve various bits of information about a room to perform a task (like syncing power levels between two places). This endpoint exposes nothing more than an admin would be able to access with a `select *` query on their database.
Context, Fixes: https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9263
In the past to fix an issue with old Riots re-requesting threepid validation tokens, we raised a `LoginError` during UIA instead of `InteractiveAuthIncompleteError`. This is now breaking the way Tchap logs in - which isn't standard, but also isn't disallowed by the spec.
An easy fix is just to remove the 4 year old workaround.
There's some prelimiary work here to pull out the construction of a jinja environment to a separate function.
I wanted to load the template at display time rather than load time, so that it's easy to update on the fly. Honestly, I think we should do this with all our templates: the risk of ending up with malformed templates is far outweighed by the improved turnaround time for an admin trying to update them.
There are going to be a couple of paths to get to the final step of SSO reg, and I want the URL in the browser to consistent. So, let's move the final step onto a separate path, which we redirect to.
We've decided to add a 'brand' field to help clients decide how to style the
buttons.
Also, fix up the allowed characters for idp_id, while I'm in the area.
