David Baker 36f4fd3e1e Comment dummy TURN parameters in default config
This default config is parsed and used a base before the actual
config is overlaid, so with these values not commented out, the
code to detect when no turn params were set and refuse to generate
credentials was never firing because the dummy default was always set.

Richard van der Hoff 546bc9e28b More server_name validation
We need to do a bit more validation when we get a server name, but don't want
to be re-doing it all over the shop, so factor out a separate
parse_and_validate_server_name, and do the extra validation.

Also, use it to verify the server name in the config file.

Initial commit; this doesn't work yet - the LIKE filtering seems too aggressive.
It also needs _do_initial_spam to be aware of prepopulating the whole user_directory_search table with all users...

David Baker 2a98ba0ed3 Rename redact_content option to include_content
The redact_content option never worked because it read the wrong config
section. The PR introducing it
(https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/2301) had feedback suggesting the
name be changed to not re-use the term 'redact' but this wasn't
incorporated.

This reanmes the option to give it a less confusing name, and also
means that people who've set the redact_content option won't suddenly
see a behaviour change when upgrading synapse, but instead can set
include_content if they want to.

This PR also updates the wording of the config comment to clarify
that this has no effect on event_id_only push.

Richard van der Hoff 7216c76654 Improve error handling for missing files (#2551)
`os.path.exists` doesn't allow us to distinguish between permissions errors and
the path actually not existing, which repeatedly confuses people. It also means
that we try to overwrite existing key files, which is super-confusing. (cf
issues #2455, #2379). Use os.stat instead.

Also, don't recomemnd the the use of --generate-config, which screws everything
up if you're using debian (cf #2455).

Pablo Saavedra 9da4316ca5 Configurable maximum number of events requested by /sync and /messages (#2220)
Set the limit on the returned events in the timeline in the get and sync
operations. The default value is -1, means no upper limit.

For example, using `filter_timeline_limit: 5000`:

POST /_matrix/client/r0/user/user:id/filter
{
room: {
    timeline: {
      limit: 1000000000000000000
    }
}
}

GET /_matrix/client/r0/user/user:id/filter/filter:id

{
room: {
    timeline: {
      limit: 5000
    }
}
}

The server cuts down the room.timeline.limit.
