By persisting the user interactive authentication sessions to the database, this fixes
situations where a user hits different works throughout their auth session and also
allows sessions to persist through restarts of Synapse.
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.
(instead of everywhere that writes a response. Or rather, the subset of places
which write responses where we haven't forgotten it).
This also means that we don't have to have the mysterious version_string
attribute in anything with a request handler.
Unfortunately it does mean that we have to pass the version string wherever we
instantiate a SynapseSite, which has been c&ped 150 times, but that is code
that ought to be cleaned up anyway really.
If you're a webapp running the fallback in an iframe, you can't set set a
window.onAuthDone function. Let's post a message back to window.opener instead.
* Now only the auth part goes to fallback, not the whole operation
* Auth fallback is a normal API endpoint, not a static page
* Params like the recaptcha pubkey can just live in the config
Involves a little engineering on JsonResource so its servlets aren't always forced to return JSON. I should document this more, in fact I'll do that now.
