When enabling the account validity feature, Synapse will look at startup for registered account without an expiration date, and will set one equals to 'now + validity_period' for them. On large servers, it can mean that a large number of users will have the same expiration date, which means that they will all be sent a renewal email at the same time, which isn't ideal.
In order to mitigate this, this PR allows server admins to define a 'max_delta' so that the expiration date is a random value in the [now + validity_period ; now + validity_period + max_delta] range. This allows renewal emails to be progressively sent over a configured period instead of being sent all in one big batch.
If account validity is enabled in the server's configuration, this job will run at startup as a background job and will stick an expiration date to any registered account missing one.
We checked that 3pids were not already in use before we checked if
we were going to return the account previously registered in the
same UI auth session, in which case the 3pids will definitely
be in use.

Prevents a SynapseError being raised inside of a IResolutionReceiver and instead opts to just return 0 results. This thus means that we have to lump a failed lookup and a blacklisted lookup together with the same error message, but the substitute should be generic enough to cover both cases.
This allows the client to complete the email last which is more
natual for the user. Without this stage, if the client would
complete the recaptcha (and terms, if enabled) stages and then the
registration request would complete because you've now completed a
flow, even if you were intending to complete the flow that's the
same except has email auth at the end.
Adding a dummy auth stage to the recaptcha-only flow means it's
always unambiguous which flow the client was trying to complete.
Longer term we should think about changing the protocol so the
client explicitly says which flow it's trying to complete.

* 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)." Source: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4390436/need-to-allow-encoded-slashes-on-apache
* 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.
Synapse 0.99.3.2 (2019-05-03)
=============================
Internal Changes
----------------
- Ensure that we have `urllib3` <1.25, to resolve incompatibility with `requests`. ([\#5135](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/5135))
psycopg 2.8 is now out, which means that the C library gets built from source,
so we now need libpq-dev when building.
Turns out the need for this package is already documented in
docs/postgres.rst.
Using systemd-python allows for logging to the systemd journal,
as is documented in: `synapse/contrib/systemd/log_config.yaml`.

We need to drop tables in the correct order due to foreign table
constraints (on `application_services`), otherwise the DROP TABLE
command will fail.
Introduced in #4992.
There's no point in collecting a merged dict of keys: it is sufficient to
consider just the new keys which have been fetched by the most recent
key_fetch_fns.
Make this just return the key dict, rather than a single-entry dict mapping the
server name to the key dict. It's easy for the caller to get the server name
from from the response object anyway.
We start all pushers on start up and immediately start a background
process to fetch push to send. This makes start up incredibly painful
when dealing with many pushers.
Instead, let's do a quick fast DB check to see if there *may* be push to
send and only start the background processes for those pushers. We also
stagger starting up and doing those checks so that we don't try and
handle all pushers at once.
Hopefully this time we really will fix#4422.
We need to make sure that the cache on
`get_rooms_for_user_with_stream_ordering` is invalidated *before* the
SyncHandler is notified for the new events, and we can now do so reliably via
the `events` stream.
We assume, as we did before, that users bound their threepid to one of
the trusted identity servers. So we simply fill the new table with all
threepids in `user_threepids` joined with the trusted identity servers.
By default the homeserver will use the identity server used during the
binding of the 3PID to unbind the 3PID. However, we need to allow
clients to explicitly ask the homeserver to unbind via a particular
identity server, for the case where the 3PID was bound out of band from
the homeserver.
Implements MSC915.
This changes the behaviour from using the server specified trusted
identity server to using the IS that used during the binding of the
3PID, if known.
This is the behaviour specified by MSC1915.
Previously we only queried the device list when the user joined the room; now we
do it when they are invited too. This means that new messages can be encrypted
for the devices of the invited user as of the point they were invited.
WARNING: This commit has two major problems however:
1. If the invited user adds devices after being invited but before joining, the
device-list will not be updated to the other servers in the room (as we don't
know who those servers are).
2. This introduces a regression, as previously the device-list would be correctly
updated when when user joined the room. However, this resync doesn't happen
now, so devices which joined after the invite and before the join may never
be added to the device-list.
This is being merged for DINSIC given the edge case of adding devices between
invite & join is pretty rare in their use case, but before it can be merged to
synapse in general we need to at least re-sync the devicelist when the user joins
or to implement some kind of pubsub mechanism to let interested servers subscribe
to devicelist updates on other servers irrespective of user join/invite membership.
This was originally https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/3484
* [x] strip invalid characters from generated mxid
* [x] append numbers to disambiguate clashing mxids
* [x] generate displayanames from 3pids using a dodgy heuristic
* [x] get rid of the create_profile_with_localpart and instead
explicitly set displaynames so they propagate correctly
This only considers the /account/3pid API, which should be sufficient
as currently we can't change emails associated with push notifs
(which are provisioned at registration), and we can't directly create
mappings for accounts in an IS other than by answering an invite

- Disable captcha registration by default in unit tests. ([\#4839](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/4839))
- Add stuff back to the .gitignore. ([\#4843](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/4843))
- Clarify what registration_shared_secret allows for. ([\#4844](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/4844))
- Correctly log expected errors when fetching server keys. ([\#4847](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/4847))
- Update install docs to explicitly state a full-chain (not just the top-level) TLS certificate must be provided to Synapse. This caused some people's Synapse ports to appear correct in a browser but still (rightfully so) upset the federation tester. ([\#4849](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/4849))
- Move client read-receipt processing to federation sender worker. ([\#4852](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/4852))
