* Upsert redactions in case they already exists
Occasionally, in combination with retention, redactions aren't deleted
from the database whenever they are due for deletion. The server will
eventually try to backfill the deleted events and trip over the already
existing redaction events.
Switching to an UPSERT for those events allows us to recover from there
situations. The retention code still needs fixing but that is outside of
my current comfort zone on this code base.
This is related to #8707 where the error was discussed already.

* Also purge redactions when purging events
Previously redacints where left behind leading to backfilling issues
when the server stumbled across the already existing yet to be
backfilled redactions.
This issues has been discussed in #8707.

Empirically, this helped my server considerably when handling gaps in Matrix HQ. The problem was that we would repeatedly call have_seen_events for the same set of (50K or so) auth_events, each of which would take many minutes to complete, even though it's only an index scan.

Removes all redundant `# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-` lines from files, as python 3 automatically reads source code as utf-8 now.

The idea is that in future tokens will encode a mapping of instance to position. However, we don't want to include the full instance name in the string representation, so instead we'll have a mapping between instance name and an immutable integer ID in the DB that we can use instead. We'll then do the lookup when we serialize/deserialize the token (we could alternatively pass around an `Instance` type that includes both the name and ID, but that turns out to be a lot more invasive).
