This PR:
* Converts UPGRADE.rst to markdown and moves the contents into the `docs/` directory.
* Updates the contents of UPGRADE.rst to point to the website instead.
* Updates links around the codebase that point to UPGRADE.rst.
`pandoc` + some manual editing was used to convert from RST to md.
* rename major/minor into the right semver terminology minor/patch (since this was something that got me very confused the first couple of times I've used the script)
* name the release branch based on the new version, not the previous one
Required some fixes due to merge conflicts with #6739, but nothing too hairy. The first commit is the same as the original (after merge conflict resolution) then two more for compatibility with the latest sync code.
If a room is remote and we don't have a user in it, always try to join it. It might fail if the room is invite-only, but we don't have a user to invite with, so at this point it's the best we can do.
Fixes#10233 (at least to some extent)
* Drop Origin & Accept from Access-Control-Allow-Headers value
This change drops the Origin and Accept header names from the value of the
Access-Control-Allow-Headers response header sent by Synapse. Per the CORS
protocol, it’s not necessary or useful to include those header names.
Details:
Per-spec at https://fetch.spec.whatwg.org/#forbidden-header-name, Origin
is a “forbidden header name” set by the browser and that frontend
JavaScript code is never allowed to set.
So the value of Access-Control-Allow-Headers isn’t relevant to Origin or
in general to other headers set by the browser itself — the browser
never ever consults the Access-Control-Allow-Headers value to confirm
that it’s OK for the request to include an Origin header.
And per-spec at https://fetch.spec.whatwg.org/#cors-safelisted-request-header,
Accept is a “CORS-safelisted request-header”, which means that browsers
allow requests to contain the Accept header regardless of whether the
Access-Control-Allow-Headers value contains "Accept".
So it’s unnecessary for the Access-Control-Allow-Headers to explicitly
include Accept. Browsers will not perform a CORS preflight for requests
containing an Accept request header.

Implemented config option sso.update_profile_information to keep user's display name in sync with the SSO displayname.

We were repeatedly looking up a config option in a loop (using the
unclassed config style), which is expensive enough that it can cause
large CPU usage.
An accidental mis-ordering of operations during #6739 technically allowed an incoming knock event over federation in before checking it against any configured Third Party Access Rules modules.
This PR corrects that by performing the TPAR check *before* persisting the event.
This PR will run a new "Deploy release-specific documentation" job whenever a push to a branch name matching `release-v*` occurs. Doing so will create/add to a folder named `vX.Y` on the `gh-pages` branch. Doing so will allow us to build up `major.minor` releases of the docs as we release Synapse.
This is especially useful for having a mechanism for keeping around documentation of old/removed features (for those running older versions of Synapse), without needing to clutter the latest copy of the docs.
After a [discussion](https://matrix.to/#/!XaqDhxuTIlvldquJaV:matrix.org/$rKmkBmQle8OwTlGcoyu0BkcWXdnHW3_oap8BMgclwIY?via=matrix.org&via=vector.modular.im&via=envs.net) in #synapse-dev, we wanted to use tags to trigger the documentation deployments, which I agreed with. However, I soon realised that the bash-foo required to turn a tag of `v1.2.3rc1` into `1.2` was a lot more complex than the branch's `release-v1.2`. So, I've gone with the latter for simplicity.
In the future we'll have some UI on the website to switch between versions, but for now you can simply just change 'develop' to 'v1.2' in the URL.
This could cause a minor data leak if someone defined a non-restricted join rule
with an allow key or used a restricted join rule in an older room version, but this is
unlikely.
Additionally this starts adding unit tests to the spaces summary handler.
This PR adds a common configuration section for all modules (see docs). These modules are then loaded at startup by the homeserver. Modules register their hooks and web resources using the new `register_[...]_callbacks` and `register_web_resource` methods of the module API.
Fixes https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10030.
We were expecting milliseconds where we should have provided a value in seconds.
The impact of this bug isn't too bad. The code is intended to count the number of remote servers that the homeserver can see and report that as a metric. This metric is supposed to run initially 1 second after server startup, and every 60s as well. Instead, it ran 1,000 seconds after server startup, and every 60s after startup.
This fix allows for the correct metrics to be collected immediately, as well as preventing a random collection 1,000s in the future after startup.
Dangerous actions means deactivating an account, modifying an account
password, or adding a 3PID.
Other actions (deleting devices, uploading keys) can re-use the same UI
auth session if ui_auth.session_timeout is configured.
This doc is short but a useful guide to what the request log lines mean.

* Trace event persistence
When we persist a batch of events, set the parent opentracing span to the that
from the request, so that we can trace all the way in.
* changelog
* When we force tracing, set a baggage item
... so that we can check again later.
* Link in both directions between persist_events spans
* Room version 7 for knocking.
* Stable prefixes and endpoints (both client and federation) for knocking.
* Removes the experimental configuration flag.
Add 'federation_ip_range_whitelist'. This allows backwards-compatibility, If 'federation_ip_range_blacklist' is set. Otherwise 'ip_range_whitelist' will be used for federation servers.

This is the first of two PRs which seek to address #8518. This first PR lays the groundwork by extending ResponseCache; a second PR (#10158) will update the SyncHandler to actually use it, and fix the bug.
The idea here is that we allow the callback given to ResponseCache.wrap to decide whether its result should be cached or not. We do that by (optionally) passing a ResponseCacheContext into it, which it can modify.

Bugfixes
--------
- Fix a bug which caused presence updates to stop working some time after a restart, when using a presence writer worker. Broke in v1.33.0. ([\#10149](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10149))
- Fix a bug when using federation sender worker where it would send out more presence updates than necessary, leading to high resource usage. Broke in v1.33.0. ([\#10163](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10163))
- Fix a bug where Synapse could send the same presence update to a remote twice. ([\#10165](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10165))
