* `RegistrationHandler.appservice_register` no longer issues an access token:
instead it is left for the caller to do it. (There are two of these, one in
`synapse/rest/client/v1/register.py`, which now simply calls
`AuthHandler.issue_access_token`, and the other in
`synapse/rest/client/v2_alpha/register.py`, which is covered below).
* In `synapse/rest/client/v2_alpha/register.py`, move the generation of
access_tokens into `_create_registration_details`. This means that the normal
flow no longer needs to call `AuthHandler.issue_access_token`; the
shared-secret flow can tell `RegistrationHandler.register` not to generate a
token; and the appservice flow continues to work despite the above change.
The only place that was observed was to set the profile. I've made it
so that the profile is set within store.register in the same transaction
that creates the user.
This required some slight changes to the registration code for upgrading
guest users, since it previously relied on the distributor swallowing errors
if the profile already existed.
Move the functions inside the distributor and import them
where needed. This reduces duplication and makes it possible
for flake8 to detect when the functions aren't used in a
given file.
This means that following the same link across multiple sessions or
devices can re-use the same guest account.
Note that this is somewhat of an abuse vector; we can't throw up
captchas on this flow, so this is a way of registering ephemeral
accounts for spam, whose sign-up we don't rate limit.
The current random IDs are ugly and confusing when presented in UIs.
This makes them prettier and easier to read.
Also, disable non-automated registration of numeric IDs so that we don't
need to worry so much about people carving out our automated address
space and us needing to keep retrying ID registration.
This follows the same flows-based flow as regular registration, but as
the only implemented flow has no requirements, it auto-succeeds. In the
future, other flows (e.g. captcha) may be required, so clients should
treat this like the regular registration flow choices.
This just replaces random bytes with macaroons. The macaroons are not
inspected by the client or server.
In particular, they claim to have an expiry time, but nothing verifies
that they have not expired.
Follow-up commits will actually enforce the expiration, and allow for
token refresh.

* Merge LoginHandler -> AuthHandler
* Add a bunch of documentation
* Improve some naming
* Remove unused branches
I will start merging the actual logic of the two handlers shortly
V2 Registration forced everyone (including ASes) to create a password for a
user, when ASes should be able to omit passwords. Also unbreak AS registration
in general which checked too early if the given username was claimed by an AS;
it was checked before knowing if the AS was the one doing the registration! Add
unit tests for AS reg, user reg and disabled_registration flag.
