Adds three new configuration variables:
* destination_min_retry_interval is identical to before (10mn).
* destination_retry_multiplier is now 2 instead of 5, the maximum value will
be reached slower.
* destination_max_retry_interval is one day instead of (essentially) infinity.
Capping this will cause destinations to continue to be retried sometimes instead
of being lost forever. The previous value was 2 ^ 62 milliseconds.
Allow configuring the set of workers to proxy outbound federation traffic through (`outbound_federation_restricted_to`).
This is useful when you have a worker setup with `federation_sender` instances responsible for sending outbound federation requests and want to make sure *all* outbound federation traffic goes through those instances. Before this change, the generic workers would still contact federation themselves for things like profile lookups, backfill, etc. This PR allows you to set more strict access controls/firewall for all workers and only allow the `federation_sender`'s to contact the outside world.
Previously, if you just followed the instructions per the docs, you just ran into an error:
```sh
$ poetry run synapse_worker --config-path homeserver_generic_worker1.yaml
Missing mandatory `server_name` config option.
```
Unix socket support for `federation` and `client` Listeners has existed now for a little while(since [1.81.0](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/15353)), but there was one last hold out before it could be complete: HTTP Replication communication. This should finish it up. The Listeners would have always worked, but would have had no way to be talked to/at.

The original code is from @erikjohnston's branches which I've gotten in-shape to merge.
Implements stable support for MSC3882; this involves updating Synapse's support to
match the MSC / the spec says.
Continue to support the unstable version to allow clients to transition.
Application services providing a "user" property (instead of "username") for
the /register endpoint was never specified. Deprecate this very old
fallback.
Fix#15667
- Reiterate the importance of getting Rust installed and set up before attempting to install the Python dependencies.
- Mention the importance of confirming that `poetry install` completed successfully and include a typical error that the user might see if it did not.
- Expand on "Now edit homeserver.yaml" to give examples of things likely to need changing and to link to the relevant sections of the Synapse server documentation.
This moves the deactivated user check to the method which
all login types call.
Additionally updates the application service tests to be more
realistic by removing invalid tests and fixing server names.
R30v2 has been out since 2021-07-19 (https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/10332)
and we started collecting stats on 2021-08-16. Since it's been over a year now
(almost 2 years), this is enough grace period for us to now rip it out.
* Add SSL options to redis config
* fix lint issues
* Add documentation and changelog file
* add missing . at the end of the changelog
* Move client context factory to new file
* Rename ssl to tls and fix typo
* fix lint issues
* Added when redis attributes were added
* Add master to the instance_map as part of Complement, have ReplicationEndpoint look at instance_map for master.
* Fix typo in drive by.
* Remove unnecessary worker_replication_* bits from unit tests and add master to instance_map(hopefully in the right place)
* Several updates:
1. Switch from master to main for naming the main process in the instance_map. Add useful constants for easier adjustment of names in the future.
2. Add backwards compatibility for worker_replication_* to allow time to transition to new style. Make sure to prioritize declaring main directly on the instance_map.
3. Clean up old comments/commented out code.
4. Adjust unit tests to match with new code.
5. Adjust Complement setup infrastructure to only add main to the instance_map if workers are used and remove now unused options from the worker.yaml template.

This stops media (and thumbnails) from being accessed from the
listed domains. It does not delete any already locally cached media,
but will prevent accessing it.
Note that admin APIs are unaffected by this change.

This uses the specced /_matrix/app/v1/... paths instead of the
"legacy" paths. If the homeserver receives an error it will retry
using the legacy path.

* Link to recent version of the API

* Refer to public `cached` decorator
* Mark caching as being added in 1.74
Some of the underlying infrastructure was added in 1.69, but the
public-facing `cached` decorator was only added in 1.74. It is the
latter that I think we should be advertising.
* Update docs/modules/writing_a_module.md

* Rephrasing
This PR just clarifies in the SRV DNS delegation document that there are
still cases a user may have to serve files from `.well-known` endpoints,
and this may not be a valid case for using SRV delegation. This has
caused some confusion in a few cases.

* Request partial joins by default
This is a little sloppy, but we are trying to gain confidence in faster
joins in the upcoming RC.
Admins can still opt out by adding the following to their Synapse
config:
```yaml
experimental:
faster_joins: false
```
We may revert this change before the release proper, depending on how
testing in the wild goes.
* Changelog
* Try to fix the backfill test failures
* Upgrade notes
* Postgres compat?
