This allows the client to complete the email last which is more
natual for the user. Without this stage, if the client would
complete the recaptcha (and terms, if enabled) stages and then the
registration request would complete because you've now completed a
flow, even if you were intending to complete the flow that's the
same except has email auth at the end.
Adding a dummy auth stage to the recaptcha-only flow means it's
always unambiguous which flow the client was trying to complete.
Longer term we should think about changing the protocol so the
client explicitly says which flow it's trying to complete.

This commit adds two config options:
* `restrict_public_rooms_to_local_users`
Requires auth to fetch the public rooms directory through the CS API and disables fetching it through the federation API.
* `require_auth_for_profile_requests`
When set to `true`, requires that requests to `/profile` over the CS API are authenticated, and only returns the user's profile if the requester shares a room with the profile's owner, as per MSC1301.
MSC1301 also specifies a behaviour for federation (only returning the profile if the server asking for it shares a room with the profile's owner), but that's currently really non-trivial to do in a not too expensive way. Next step is writing down a MSC that allows a HS to specify which user sent the profile query. In this implementation, Synapse won't send a profile query over federation if it doesn't believe it already shares a room with the profile's owner, though.
Groups have been intentionally omitted from this commit.
This endpoint isn't much use for its intended purpose if you first need to get
yourself an admin's auth token.
I've restricted it to the `/_synapse/admin` path to make it a bit easier to
lock down for those concerned about exposing this information. I don't imagine
anyone is using it in anger currently.
By default the homeserver will use the identity server used during the
binding of the 3PID to unbind the 3PID. However, we need to allow
clients to explicitly ask the homeserver to unbind via a particular
identity server, for the case where the 3PID was bound out of band from
the homeserver.
Implements MSC915.
Adds a new method, check_3pid_auth, which gives password providers
the chance to allow authentication with third-party identifiers such
as email or msisdn.
Currently the explanation message is sent to the abuse room before any
users are forced joined, which means it tends to get lost in the backlog
of joins.
So instead we send the message *after* we've forced joined everyone.
