The logic is "designed" to "handle" the case where the servers view of
the state at an event doesn't match what the remote server set as the
auth events. With some hand waving the server would try and come to some
sort of conclusion of which side was correct, involving state
resolution, but this could come up with interesting results.

The entire process is unspecced and buggy, so let's just remove it.

-Synapse 1.20.1 (2020-09-24)
-===========================
-
-Bugfixes
---------
-
-- Fix a bug introduced in v1.20.0 which caused the `synapse_port_db` script to fail. ([\#8386](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/8386))
-- Fix a bug introduced in v1.20.0 which caused variables to be incorrectly escaped in Jinja2 templates. ([\#8394](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/8394))
-
-
-Synapse 1.20.0 (2020-09-22)
-===========================
-
-No significant changes since v1.20.0rc5.
-
-Removal warning
----------------
-
-Historically, the [Synapse Admin
-API](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/tree/master/docs) has been
-accessible under the `/_matrix/client/api/v1/admin`,
-`/_matrix/client/unstable/admin`, `/_matrix/client/r0/admin` and
-`/_synapse/admin` prefixes. In a future release, we will be dropping support
-for accessing Synapse's Admin API using the `/_matrix/client/*` prefixes. This
-makes it easier for homeserver admins to lock down external access to the Admin
-API endpoints.
-
-Synapse 1.20.0rc5 (2020-09-18)
-==============================
-
-In addition to the below, Synapse 1.20.0rc5 also includes the bug fix that was included in 1.19.3.
-
-Features
---------
-
-- Add flags to the `/versions` endpoint for whether new rooms default to using E2EE. ([\#8343](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/8343))
-
-
-Bugfixes
---------
-
-- Fix rate limiting of federation `/send` requests. ([\#8342](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/8342))
-- Fix a longstanding bug where back pagination over federation could get stuck if it failed to handle a received event. ([\#8349](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/8349))
-
-
-Internal Changes
-----------------
-
-- Blacklist [MSC2753](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2753) SyTests until it is implemented. ([\#8285](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/8285))
-
-
-Synapse 1.19.3 (2020-09-18)
-===========================
-
-Bugfixes
---------
-
-- Partially mitigate bug where newly joined servers couldn't get past events in a room when there is a malformed event. ([\#8350](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/8350))
-
-
-Synapse 1.20.0rc4 (2020-09-16)
-==============================
-
-Synapse 1.20.0rc4 is identical to 1.20.0rc3, with the addition of the security fix that was included in 1.19.2.
-
-
-Synapse 1.19.2 (2020-09-16)
-===========================

-
-
-Synapse 1.20.0rc1 (2020-09-08)
-==============================
-
-Removal warning
----------------
-
-Some older clients used a [disallowed character](https://matrix.org/docs/spec/client_server/r0.6.1#post-matrix-client-r0-register-email-requesttoken) (`:`) in the `client_secret` parameter of various endpoints. The incorrect behaviour was allowed for backwards compatibility, but is now being removed from Synapse as most users have updated their client. Further context can be found at [\#6766](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/6766).
-
-Features
---------
-
-- Add an endpoint to query your shared rooms with another user as an implementation of [MSC2666](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2666). ([\#7785](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/7785))
-- Iteratively encode JSON to avoid blocking the reactor. ([\#8013](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/8013), [\#8116](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/8116))

-- Synapse now correctly enforces the valid characters in the `client_secret` parameter used in various endpoints. ([\#8101](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/8101))
-- Fix a bug introduced in v1.7.2 impacting message retention policies that would allow federated homeservers to dictate a retention period that's lower than the configured minimum allowed duration in the configuration file. ([\#8104](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/8104))
-- Fix a long-standing bug where invalid JSON would be accepted by Synapse. ([\#8106](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/8106))

-Upgrading to v1.21.0
-====================
-
-Forwarding ``/_synapse/client`` through your reverse proxy
-----------------------------------------------------------
-
-The `reverse proxy documentation
-<https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/reverse_proxy.md>`_ has been updated
-to include reverse proxy directives for ``/_synapse/client/*`` endpoints. As the user password
-reset flow now uses endpoints under this prefix, **you must update your reverse proxy
-configurations for user password reset to work**.
-
-Additionally, note that the `Synapse worker documentation
-<https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/workers.md>`_ has been updated to
- state that the ``/_synapse/client/password_reset/email/submit_token`` endpoint can be handled
-by all workers. If you make use of Synapse's worker feature, please update your reverse proxy
-configuration to reflect this change.
-
-New HTML templates
-------------------
-
-A new HTML template,
-`password_reset_confirmation.html <https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/synapse/res/templates/password_reset_confirmation.html>`_,
-has been added to the ``synapse/res/templates`` directory. If you are using a
-custom template directory, you may want to copy the template over and modify it.
-
-Note that as of v1.20.0, templates do not need to be included in custom template
-directories for Synapse to start. The default templates will be used if a custom
-template cannot be found.
-
-This page will appear to the user after clicking a password reset link that has
-been emailed to them.
-
-To complete password reset, the page must include a way to make a `POST`
-request to
-``/_synapse/client/password_reset/{medium}/submit_token``
-with the query parameters from the original link, presented as a URL-encoded form. See the file
-itself for more details.
-
-Updated Single Sign-on HTML Templates
--------------------------------------
-
-The ``saml_error.html`` template was removed from Synapse and replaced with the
-``sso_error.html`` template. If your Synapse is configured to use SAML and a
-custom ``sso_redirect_confirm_template_dir`` configuration then any customisations
-of the ``saml_error.html`` template will need to be merged into the ``sso_error.html``
-template. These templates are similar, but the parameters are slightly different:
-
-* The ``msg`` parameter should be renamed to ``error_description``.
-* There is no longer a ``code`` parameter for the response code.
-* A string ``error`` parameter is available that includes a short hint of why a
-  user is seeing the error page.
-
