When a user creates an account and the 'require_auth_for_profile_requests' config flag is set, and a client that performed the registration wants to lookup the newly-created profile, the request will be denied because the user doesn't share a room with themselves yet.
This has never been documented, and I'm not sure it's ever been used outside
sytest.
It's quite a lot of poorly-maintained code, so I'd like to get rid of it.
For now I haven't removed the database table; I suggest we leave that for a
future clearout.

This would cause emails being sent, but Synapse responding with a 429 when creating the event. The client would then retry, and with bad timing the same scenario would happen again. Some testing I did ended up sending me 10 emails for one single invite because of this.
When a client asks for users whose devices have changed since a token we
used to pull *all* users from the database since the token, which could
easily be thousands of rows for old tokens.
This PR changes this to only check for changes for users the client is
actually interested in.
Fixes#5553
Closes#4583
Does slightly less than #5045, which prevented a room from being upgraded multiple times, one after another. This PR still allows that, but just prevents two from happening at the same time.
Mostly just to mitigate the fact that servers are slow and it can take a moment for the room upgrade to actually complete. We don't want people sending another request to upgrade the room when really they just thought the first didn't go through.
If no `from` param is specified we calculate and use the "current
token" that inlcuded typing, presence, etc. These are unused during
pagination and are not available on workers, so we simply don't
calculate them.
If, for some reason, presence updates take a while to persist then it
can trigger clients to tightloop calling `/sync` due to the presence
handler returning updates but not advancing the stream token.
Fixes#5503.
I had to add quite a lot of logging to diagnose a problem with 3pid
invites - we only logged the one failure which isn't all that
informative.
NB. I'm not convinced the logic of this loop is right: I think it
should just accept a single valid signature from a trusted source
rather than fail if *any* signature is invalid. Also it should
probably not skip the rest of middle loop if a check fails? However,
I'm deliberately not changing the logic here.
Adds new config option `cleanup_extremities_with_dummy_events` which
periodically sends dummy events to rooms with more than 10 extremities.
THIS IS REALLY EXPERIMENTAL.
Fixes that when a user exchanges a 3PID invite for a proper invite over
federation it does not include the `invite_room_state` key.
This was due to synapse incorrectly sending out two invite requests.
Sends password reset emails from the homeserver instead of proxying to the identity server. This is now the default behaviour for security reasons. If you wish to continue proxying password reset requests to the identity server you must now enable the email.trust_identity_server_for_password_resets option.
This PR is a culmination of 3 smaller PRs which have each been separately reviewed:
* #5308
* #5345
* #5368
