* Update worker docs to remove group endpoints.
* Removes an unused parameter to `ApplicationService`.
* Break dependency between media repo and groups.
* Avoid copying `m.room.related_groups` state events during room upgrades.
Currently, we try to pull the event corresponding to a sync token from the database. However, when
we fetch redaction events, we check the target of that redaction (because we aren't allowed to send
redactions to clients without validating them). So, if the sync token points to a redaction of an event
that we don't have, we have a problem.
It turns out we don't really need that event, and can just work with its ID and metadata, which
sidesteps the whole problem.
* Raise a dedicated `InvalidEventSignatureError` from `_check_sigs_on_pdu`
* Downgrade logging about redactions to DEBUG
this can be very spammy during a room join, and it's not very useful.
* Raise `InvalidEventSignatureError` from `_check_sigs_and_hash`
... and, more importantly, move the logging out to the callers.

Synapse 1.60.0rc2 (2022-05-27)
==============================
This release of Synapse adds a unique index to the `state_group_edges` table, in
order to prevent accidentally introducing duplicate information (for example,
because a database backup was restored multiple times). If your Synapse database
already has duplicate rows in this table, this could fail with an error and
require manual remediation.
Additionally, the signature of the `check_event_for_spam` module callback has changed.
The previous signature has been deprecated and remains working for now. Module authors
should update their modules to use the new signature where possible.
See [the upgrade notes](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/upgrade.md#upgrading-to-v1600)
for more details.
Features
--------
- Add an option allowing users to use their password to reauthenticate for privileged actions even though password login is disabled. ([\#12883](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12883))
Bugfixes
--------
- Explicitly close `ijson` coroutines once we are done with them, instead of leaving the garbage collector to close them. ([\#12875](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12875))
Internal Changes
----------------
- Improve URL previews by not including the content of media tags in the generated description. ([\#12887](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12887))
Hopefully this means that exceptions raised due to truncated JSON
get a sensible logging context and stack.

* Fix room deletion
ae7858f broke room deletion by attempting to delete the entry from `rooms`
before the tables that reference it.
* faster_joins: remove database rows on purge
* Refactor HTTP response size limits
Rather than passing a separate `max_response_size` down the stack, make it an
attribute of the `parser`.
* Allow bigger responses on `federation/v1/state`
`/state` can return huge responses, so we need to handle that.
Makes it so that groups/communities no longer exist from a user-POV. E.g. we remove:
* All API endpoints (including Client-Server, Server-Server, and admin).
* Documented configuration options (and the experimental flag, which is now unused).
* Special handling during room upgrades.
* The `groups` section of the `/sync` response.
By always returning all requested values from the function
wrapped by cachedList. Otherwise implicit None values get
added into the cache, which are unexpected.
Implements the following behind an experimental configuration flag:
* A new push rule kind for mutually related events.
* A new default push rule (`.m.rule.thread_reply`) under an unstable prefix.
This is missing part of MSC3772:
* The `.m.rule.thread_reply_to_me` push rule, this depends on MSC3664 / #11804.

([\#12718](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12718))
- Add a `drop_federated_event` callback to `SpamChecker` to disregard inbound federated events before they take up much processing power, in an emergency. ([\#12744](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12744))
