This closes#2602
v1auth was created to account for the differences in status code between
the v1 and v2_alpha revisions of the protocol (401 vs 403 for invalid
tokens). However since those protocols were merged, this makes the r0
version/endpoint internally inconsistent, and violates the
specification for the r0 endpoint.
This might break clients that rely on this inconsistency with the
specification. This is said to affect the legacy angular reference
client. However, I feel that restoring parity with the spec is more
important. Either way, it is critical to inform developers about this
change, in case they rely on the illegal behaviour.

This fixes a race whereby:
- User hits an endpoint.
- No cached transaction so executes main code.
- User hits same endpoint.
- No cache transaction so executes main code.
- Main code finishes executing and caches response and returns.
- Main code finishes executing and caches response and returns.
This race is common in the wild when Synapse is struggling under load.
This commit fixes the race by:
- User hits an endpoint.
- Caches the promise to execute the main code and executes main code.
- User hits same endpoint.
- Yields on the same promise as the first request.
- Main code finishes executing and returns, unblocking both requests.
hs.get_handlers() can not be invoked from split out processes. Moving
the invocations down a level means that we can slowly split out
individual servlets.
