This is a combination of a few different PRs, finally all being merged into `develop`:
* #5875
* #5876
* #5868 (This one added the `/versions` flag but the flag itself was actually [backed out](891afb57cb (diff-e591d42d30690ffb79f63bb726200891)) in #5969. What's left is just giving /versions access to the config file, which could be useful in the future)
* #5835
* #5969
* #5940
Clients should not actually use the new registration functionality until https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/5972 is merged.
UPGRADE.rst, changelog entries and config file changes should all be reviewed closely before this PR is merged.
This is mostly a documentation change, but also adds a default value for
SYNAPSE_CONFIG_PATH, so that running from the generated config is the default,
and will Just Work provided your config is in the right place.
This setup is a way to manage workers with systemd. It does however not
require workers. You can use this setup without workers. You just have
to make sure that the homeserver is forking and writes its PID file
to the location the service is looking in.
The currently distributed setup in the debian package does not work in
conjunction with workers.
* Adds changelog
* Lets systemd handle the forking
Sets all services to `type=simple` and disables daemonizing on the
synapse side.
* Formats readme to 80 columns per line
* Allows for full restart of all workers
* Changes README to reflect the new setup
* Adds dot to end of changelog file
* Removes surplus word

Hi, the original docker-compose file did not work by default.
You get federation port working but no client port.
My proposal is to let federation port work as it is by default (8448) and let traefik handle client http/https traffic.
If you're installing as a system package, the system package should have set up
the systemd config, so it's more useful to give an example of running in a
virtualenv here.
It's much easier to build the image via docker-compose instead of an
error-prone low-level docker call.

Starting with synctl lead to "no config file found"
Stopping also leads to some (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE), but at least now we can stop the service.
Non-existing files, when running the suggested from https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse#configuring-synapse
/etc/synapse/log_config.yaml so the --log-config leads to an error
/etc/sysconfig/synapse The environment-file or even the /etc/sysconfig does not exist in arch linux
Also instead of calling python2 we use synctl, as this seems to be the proper way to start it, and it gives us a more useful error in the systemctl status. And we now allow stop (and therefore restart).
Functions from syutil.crypto.jsonsign are now available in
signedjson, so use that instead of depending on syutil.

Now there is at least one environment variable that controls
synapse server's behaviour: SYNAPSE_CACHE_FACTOR.
So, it makes sense to make systemd unit file to use
environment configuration file that can set this variable's value.

It turned out that merely configuring the root logger is not enough for
"catch-all" semantics. The logging subsystem also needs to be told not
to disable existing loggers (so that their messages will get propagated
to handlers up the logging hierarchy, not just silently discarded).

The added logger configuration (--log-config or log_config:) uses
systemd's python bindings to pass messages directly to the journal.
