""" Process a PDU received in a federation /send/ transaction.
If the event is invalid, then this method throws a FederationError.
(The error will then be logged and sent back to the sender (which
probably won't do anything with it), and other events in the
transaction will be processed as normal).
It is likely that we'll then receive other events which refer to
this rejected_event in their prev_events, etc. When that happens,
we'll attempt to fetch the rejected event again, which will presumably
fail, so those second-generation events will also get rejected.
Eventually, we get to the point where there are more than 10 events
between any new events and the original rejected event. Since we
only try to backfill 10 events deep on received pdu, we then accept the
new event, possibly introducing a discontinuity in the DAG, with new
forward extremities, so normal service is approximately returned,
until we try to backfill across the discontinuity.
Args:
origin (str): server which sent the pdu
pdu (FrozenEvent): received pdu
Returns (Deferred): completes with None
Raises: FederationError if the signatures / hash do not match
