Currently when puppeting another user, the user doing the puppeting is
tracked for client IPs and MAU (if configured).
When tracking MAU is important, it becomes necessary to be possible to
also track the client IPs and MAU of puppeted users. As an example a
client that manages user creation and creation of tokens via the Synapse
admin API, passing those tokens for the client to use.
This PR adds optional configuration to enable tracking of puppeted users
into monthly active users. The default behaviour stays the same.

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.
`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`.
Make it so that most options in the config are optional, and commented out in
the generated config.
The reasons this is a good thing are as follows:
* If we decide that we should change the default for an option, we can do so,
and only those admins that have deliberately chosen to override that option
will be stuck on the old setting.
* It moves us towards a point where we can get rid of the super-surprising
feature of synapse where the default settings for the config come from the
generated yaml.
* It makes setting up a test config for unit testing an order of magnitude
easier (see forthcoming PR).
* It makes the generated config more consistent, and hopefully easier for users
to understand.
The general idea here is that config examples should just have a hash and no
extraneous whitespace, both to make it easier for people who don't understand
yaml, and to make the examples stand out from the comments.
