The `expire_access_token` didn't do what it sounded like it should do. What it
actually did was make Synapse enforce the 'time' caveat on macaroons used as
access tokens, but since our access token macaroons never contained such a
caveat, it was always a no-op.
(The code to add 'time' caveats was removed back in v0.18.5, in #1656)
* Opentracing survival guide
* Update decorator names in doc
* Doc cleanup
These are all alterations as a result of comments in #5703, it
includes mostly typos and clarifications. The most interesting
changes are:
- Split developer and user docs into two sections
- Add a high level description of OpenTracing
* newsfile
* Move contributer specific info to docstring.
* Sample config.
* Trailing whitespace.
* Update 5703.misc
* Apply suggestions from code review
Mostly just rewording parts of the docs for clarity.

Clean up config settings and dead code.
This is mostly about cleaning up the config format, to bring it into line with our conventions. In particular:
* There should be a blank line after `## Section ##' headings
* There should be a blank line between each config setting
* There should be a `#`-only line between a comment and the setting it describes
* We don't really do the `# #` style commenting-out of whole sections if we can help it
* rename `tracer_enabled` to `enabled`
While we're here, do more config parsing upfront, which makes it easier to use
later on.
Also removes redundant code from LogContextScopeManager.
Also changes the changelog fragment to a `feature` - it's exciting!
This is basically a contrived way of adding a `Recommends` on `libpq5`, to fix#5653.
The way this is supposed to happen in debhelper is to run
`dh_shlibdeps`, which in turn runs `dpkg-shlibdeps`, which spits things out
into `debian/<package>.substvars` whence they can later be included by
`control`.
Previously, we had disabled `dh_shlibdeps`, mostly because `dpkg-shlibdeps`
gets confused about PIL's interdependent objects, but that's not really the
right thing to do and there is another way to work around that.
Since we don't always use postgres, we don't necessarily want a hard Depends on
libpq5, so I've actually ended up adding an explicit invocation of
`dpkg-shlibdeps` for `psycopg2`.
I've also updated the build-depends list for the package, which was missing a
couple of entries.
* Configure and initialise tracer
Includes config options for the tracer and sets up JaegerClient.
* Scope manager using LogContexts
We piggy-back our tracer scopes by using log context.
The current log context gives us the current scope. If new scope is
created we create a stack of scopes in the context.
* jaeger is a dependency now
* Carrier inject and extraction for Twisted Headers
* Trace federation requests on the way in and out.
The span is created in _started_processing and closed in
_finished_processing because we need a meaningful log context.
* Create logcontext for new scope.
Instead of having a stack of scopes in a logcontext we create a new
context for a new scope if the current logcontext already has a scope.
* Remove scope from logcontext if logcontext is top level
* Disable tracer if not configured
* typo

Sends password reset emails from the homeserver instead of proxying to the identity server. This is now the default behaviour for security reasons. If you wish to continue proxying password reset requests to the identity server you must now enable the email.trust_identity_server_for_password_resets option.
This PR is a culmination of 3 smaller PRs which have each been separately reviewed:
* #5308
* #5345
* #5368
There are a few changes going on here:
* We make checking the signature on a key server response optional: if no
verify_keys are specified, we trust to TLS to validate the connection.
* We change the default config so that it does not require responses to be
signed by the old key.
* We replace the old 'perspectives' config with 'trusted_key_servers', which
is also formatted slightly differently.
* We emit a warning to the logs every time we trust a key server response
signed by the old key.
Replaces DEFAULT_ROOM_VERSION constant with a method that first checks the config, then returns a hardcoded value if the option is not present.
That hardcoded value is now located in the server.py config file.
* Add AllowEncodedSlashes to apache
Add `AllowEncodedSlashes On` to apache config to support encoding for v3 rooms. "The AllowEncodedSlashes setting is not inherited by virtual hosts, and virtual hosts are used in many default Apache configurations, such as the one in Ubuntu. The workaround is to add the AllowEncodedSlashes setting inside a <VirtualHost> container (/etc/apache2/sites-available/default in Ubuntu)."

* change allowencodedslashes to nodecode
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.
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.
Make it so that most options in the config are optional, and commented out in
the generated config.
The reasons this is a good thing are as follows:
* If we decide that we should change the default for an option, we can do so,
and only those admins that have deliberately chosen to override that option
will be stuck on the old setting.
* It moves us towards a point where we can get rid of the super-surprising
feature of synapse where the default settings for the config come from the
generated yaml.
* It makes setting up a test config for unit testing an order of magnitude
easier (see forthcoming PR).
* It makes the generated config more consistent, and hopefully easier for users
to understand.

If the client failed to process incoming commands during the initial set
up of the replication connection it would immediately disconnect and
reconnect, resulting in a tightloop.
This can happen, for example, when subscribing to a stream that has a
row that is too long in the backlog.
The fix here is to not consider the connection successfully set up until
the client has succesfully subscribed and caught up with the streams.
This ensures that the retry logic timers aren't reset until then,
meaning that if an error does happen during start up the client will
continue backing off before retrying again.

A surprising number of people are using the well-known method, and are
simply copying the example configuration. This is problematic as the
example includes an explicit port, which causes inbound federation
requests to have the HTTP Host header include the port, upsetting some
reverse proxies.
Given that, we update the well-known example to be more explicit about
the various ways you can set it up, and the consequence of using an
explict port.

Allow for the creation of a support user.
A support user can access the server, join rooms, interact with other users, but does not appear in the user directory nor does it contribute to monthly active user limits.
* Some words about garbage collections and logcontexts
* Do a GC after each test to fix logcontext leaks
This feels like an awful hack, but...
