Updated Single Sign-on HTML Templates
-------------------------------------
The ``saml_error.html`` template was removed from Synapse and replaced with the
``sso_error.html`` template. If your Synapse is configured to use SAML and a
custom ``sso_redirect_confirm_template_dir`` configuration then any customisations
of the ``saml_error.html`` template will need to be merged into the ``sso_error.html``
template. These templates are similar, but the parameters are slightly different:
* The ``msg`` parameter should be renamed to ``error_description``.
* There is no longer a ``code`` parameter for the response code.
* A string ``error`` parameter is available that includes a short hint of why a
user is seeing the error page.
Upgrading to v1.18.0
