It's a simplification, but one that'll help make the user directory logic easier
to follow with the other changes upcoming. It's not strictly required for those
changes, but this will help simplify the resulting logic that listens for
`m.room.member` events and generally make the logic easier to follow.
This means the config option `search_all_users` ends up controlling the
search query only, and not the data we store. The cost of doing so is an
extra row in the `user_directory` and `user_directory_search` tables for
each local user which
- belongs to no public rooms
- belongs to no private rooms of size ≥ 2
I think the cost of this will be marginal (since they'll already have entries
in `users` and `profiles` anyway).
As a small upside, a homeserver whose directory was built with this
change can toggle `search_all_users` without having to rebuild their
directory.

Several configuration sections are using separate settings for custom template directories, which can be confusing. This PR adds a new top-level configuration for a custom template directory which is then used for every module. The only exception is the consent templates, since the consent template directory require a specific hierarchy, so it's probably better that it stays separate from everything else.
Per issue #9812 using `url_preview_ip_range_blacklist` with a proxy via `HTTPS_PROXY` or `HTTP_PROXY` environment variables has some inconsistent bahavior than mentioned. This PR changes the following:
- Changes the Sample Config file to include a note mentioning that `url_preview_ip_range_blacklist` and `ip_range_blacklist` is ignored when using a proxy
- Changes some logic in synapse/config/repository.py to send a warning when both `*ip_range_blacklist` configs and a proxy environment variable are set and but no longer throws an error.

This adds an API for third-party plugin modules to implement account validity, so they can provide this feature instead of Synapse. The module implementing the current behaviour for this feature can be found at https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse-email-account-validity.
To allow for a smooth transition between the current feature and the new module, hooks have been added to the existing account validity endpoints to allow their behaviours to be overridden by a module.

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.
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.
MSC1772 specifies the m.room.create event should be sent as part
of the invite_state. This was done optionally behind an experimental
flag, but is now done by default due to MSC1772 being approved.
Now that cross signing exists there is much less of a need for other people to look at devices and verify them individually. This PR adds a config option to allow you to prevent device display names from being shared with other servers.

Synapse can be quite memory intensive, and unless care is taken to tune
the GC thresholds it can end up thrashing, causing noticable performance
problems for large servers. We fix this by limiting how often we GC a
given generation, regardless of current counts/thresholds.
This does not help with the reverse problem where the thresholds are set
too high, but that should only happen in situations where they've been
manually configured.
Adds a `gc_min_seconds_between` config option to override the defaults.
Fixes#9890.
This attempts to be a direct port of https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse-dinsic/pull/74 to mainline. There was some fiddling required to deal with the changes that have been made to mainline since (mainly dealing with the split of `RegistrationWorkerStore` from `RegistrationStore`, and the changes made to `self.make_request` in test code).
At the moment, if you'd like to share presence between local or remote users, those users must be sharing a room together. This isn't always the most convenient or useful situation though.
This PR adds a module to Synapse that will allow deployments to set up extra logic on where presence updates should be routed. The module must implement two methods, `get_users_for_states` and `get_interested_users`. These methods are given presence updates or user IDs and must return information that Synapse will use to grant passing presence updates around.
A method is additionally added to `ModuleApi` which allows triggering a set of users to receive the current, online presence information for all users they are considered interested in. This is the equivalent of that user receiving presence information during an initial sync.
The goal of this module is to be fairly generic and useful for a variety of applications, with hard requirements being:
* Sending state for a specific set or all known users to a defined set of local and remote users.
* The ability to trigger an initial sync for specific users, so they receive all current state.
The regex should be terminated so that subdomain matches of another
domain are not accepted. Just ensuring that someone doesn't shoot
themselves in the foot by copying our example.

`room_invite_state_types` was inconvenient as a configuration setting, because
anyone that ever set it would not receive any new types that were added to the
defaults. Here, we deprecate the old setting, and replace it with a couple of
new settings under `room_prejoin_state`.
I've reiterated the advice about using `oidc` to migrate, since I've seen a few
people caught by this.
I've also removed a couple of the examples as they are duplicating the OIDC
documentation, and I think they might be leading people astray.
This PR adds a homeserver config option, `user_directory.prefer_local_users`, that when enabled will show local users higher in user directory search results than remote users. This option is off by default.
Note that turning this on doesn't necessarily mean that remote users will always be put below local users, but they should be assuming all other ranking factors (search query match, profile information present etc) are identical.
This is useful for, say, University networks that are openly federating, but want to prioritise local students and staff in the user directory over other random users.
