Add changelog

This python implementation of a tap formatting library for buildkite has been
replaced with a perl implementation as part of the matrix-org/sytest repo,
which is specific to sytest's language, not that of any one homeserver's.

This is all for dendrite really.

-# Contributing code to Matrix
-
-Everyone is welcome to contribute code to Matrix
-(https://github.com/matrix-org), provided that they are willing to license
-their contributions under the same license as the project itself. We follow a
-simple 'inbound=outbound' model for contributions: the act of submitting an
-'inbound' contribution means that the contributor agrees to license the code
-under the same terms as the project's overall 'outbound' license - in our
-case, this is almost always Apache Software License v2 (see [LICENSE](LICENSE)).
-
-## How to contribute
-
-The preferred and easiest way to contribute changes to Matrix is to fork the
-relevant project on github, and then [create a pull request](
-https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests/) to ask us to pull
-your changes into our repo.
-
-**The single biggest thing you need to know is: please base your changes on
-the develop branch - *not* master.**
-
-We use the master branch to track the most recent release, so that folks who
-blindly clone the repo and automatically check out master get something that
-works. Develop is the unstable branch where all the development actually
-happens: the workflow is that contributors should fork the develop branch to
-make a 'feature' branch for a particular contribution, and then make a pull
-request to merge this back into the matrix.org 'official' develop branch. We
-use github's pull request workflow to review the contribution, and either ask
-you to make any refinements needed or merge it and make them ourselves. The
-changes will then land on master when we next do a release.
-
-We use [Buildkite](https://buildkite.com/matrix-dot-org/synapse) for continuous
-integration. If your change breaks the build, this will be shown in GitHub, so
-please keep an eye on the pull request for feedback.
-
-To run unit tests in a local development environment, you can use:
-
-- ``tox -e py35`` (requires tox to be installed by ``pip install tox``)

-Docker images are available for running the integration tests (SyTest) locally,
-see the [documentation in the SyTest repo](
-https://github.com/matrix-org/sytest/blob/develop/docker/README.md) for more

-
-## Code style
-
-All Matrix projects have a well-defined code-style - and sometimes we've even
-got as far as documenting it... For instance, synapse's code style doc lives
-[here](docs/code_style.md).
-
-To facilitate meeting these criteria you can run `scripts-dev/lint.sh`
-locally. Since this runs the tools listed in the above document, you'll need
-python 3.6 and to install each tool:
-
-```
-# Install the dependencies
-pip install -U black flake8 isort
-
-# Run the linter script
-./scripts-dev/lint.sh
-```
-
-**Note that the script does not just test/check, but also reformats code, so you
-may wish to ensure any new code is committed first**. By default this script
-checks all files and can take some time; if you alter only certain files, you
-might wish to specify paths as arguments to reduce the run-time:
-
-```
-./scripts-dev/lint.sh path/to/file1.py path/to/file2.py path/to/folder
-```
-
-Before pushing new changes, ensure they don't produce linting errors. Commit any
-files that were corrected.
-
-Please ensure your changes match the cosmetic style of the existing project,
-and **never** mix cosmetic and functional changes in the same commit, as it
-makes it horribly hard to review otherwise.
-
-
-## Changelog
-
-All changes, even minor ones, need a corresponding changelog / newsfragment
-entry. These are managed by [Towncrier](https://github.com/hawkowl/towncrier).
-
-To create a changelog entry, make a new file in the `changelog.d` directory named
-in the format of `PRnumber.type`. The type can be one of the following:
-
-* `feature`
-* `bugfix`
-* `docker` (for updates to the Docker image)
-* `doc` (for updates to the documentation)
-* `removal` (also used for deprecations)
-* `misc` (for internal-only changes)
-
-The content of the file is your changelog entry, which should be a short
-description of your change in the same style as the rest of our [changelog](
-https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/master/CHANGES.md). The file can
-contain Markdown formatting, and should end with a full stop (.) or an
-exclamation mark (!) for consistency.
-
-Adding credits to the changelog is encouraged, we value your
-contributions and would like to have you shouted out in the release notes!
-
-For example, a fix in PR #1234 would have its changelog entry in
-`changelog.d/1234.bugfix`, and contain content like "The security levels of
-Florbs are now validated when received over federation. Contributed by Jane
-Matrix.".
-
-## Debian changelog
-
-Changes which affect the debian packaging files (in `debian`) are an
-exception.
-
-In this case, you will need to add an entry to the debian changelog for the
-next release. For this, run the following command:
-
-```
-dch
-```
-
-This will make up a new version number (if there isn't already an unreleased
-version in flight), and open an editor where you can add a new changelog entry.
-(Our release process will ensure that the version number and maintainer name is
-corrected for the release.)
-
-If your change affects both the debian packaging *and* files outside the debian
-directory, you will need both a regular newsfragment *and* an entry in the
-debian changelog. (Though typically such changes should be submitted as two
-separate pull requests.)
-
-## Sign off
-
-In order to have a concrete record that your contribution is intentional

+Contributing code to Matrix
+===========================
+
+Everyone is welcome to contribute code to Matrix
+(https://github.com/matrix-org), provided that they are willing to license
+their contributions under the same license as the project itself. We follow a
+simple 'inbound=outbound' model for contributions: the act of submitting an
+'inbound' contribution means that the contributor agrees to license the code
+under the same terms as the project's overall 'outbound' license - in our
+case, this is almost always Apache Software License v2 (see LICENSE).
+
+How to contribute
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The preferred and easiest way to contribute changes to Matrix is to fork the
+relevant project on github, and then create a pull request to ask us to pull
+your changes into our repo
+(https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests/)
+
+**The single biggest thing you need to know is: please base your changes on
+the develop branch - /not/ master.**
+
+We use the master branch to track the most recent release, so that folks who
+blindly clone the repo and automatically check out master get something that
+works. Develop is the unstable branch where all the development actually
+happens: the workflow is that contributors should fork the develop branch to
+make a 'feature' branch for a particular contribution, and then make a pull
+request to merge this back into the matrix.org 'official' develop branch. We
+use github's pull request workflow to review the contribution, and either ask
+you to make any refinements needed or merge it and make them ourselves. The
+changes will then land on master when we next do a release.
+
+We use `Buildkite <https://buildkite.com/matrix-dot-org/synapse>`_ for
+continuous integration.  Buildkite builds need to be authorised by a
+maintainer. If your change breaks the build, this will be shown in GitHub, so
+please keep an eye on the pull request for feedback.
+
+To run unit tests in a local development environment, you can use:
+
+- ``tox -e py35`` (requires tox to be installed by ``pip install tox``)
+  for SQLite-backed Synapse on Python 3.5.
+- ``tox -e py36`` for SQLite-backed Synapse on Python 3.6.
+- ``tox -e py36-postgres`` for PostgreSQL-backed Synapse on Python 3.6
+  (requires a running local PostgreSQL with access to create databases).
+- ``./test_postgresql.sh`` for PostgreSQL-backed Synapse on Python 3.5
+  (requires Docker). Entirely self-contained, recommended if you don't want to
+  set up PostgreSQL yourself.
+
+Docker images are available for running the integration tests (SyTest) locally,
+see the `documentation in the SyTest repo
+<https://github.com/matrix-org/sytest/blob/develop/docker/README.md>`_ for more
+information.
+
+Code style
+~~~~~~~~~~
+
+All Matrix projects have a well-defined code-style - and sometimes we've even
+got as far as documenting it... For instance, synapse's code style doc lives
+at https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/tree/master/docs/code_style.md.
+
+Please ensure your changes match the cosmetic style of the existing project,
+and **never** mix cosmetic and functional changes in the same commit, as it
+makes it horribly hard to review otherwise.
+
+Changelog
+~~~~~~~~~
+
+All changes, even minor ones, need a corresponding changelog / newsfragment
+entry. These are managed by Towncrier
+(https://github.com/hawkowl/towncrier).
+
+To create a changelog entry, make a new file in the ``changelog.d`` file named
+in the format of ``PRnumber.type``. The type can be one of the following:
+
+* ``feature``.
+* ``bugfix``.
+* ``docker`` (for updates to the Docker image).
+* ``doc`` (for updates to the documentation).
+* ``removal`` (also used for deprecations).
+* ``misc`` (for internal-only changes).
+
+The content of the file is your changelog entry, which should be a short
+description of your change in the same style as the rest of our `changelog
+<https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/master/CHANGES.md>`_. The file can
+contain Markdown formatting, and should end with a full stop ('.') for
+consistency.
+
+Adding credits to the changelog is encouraged, we value your

+
+For example, a fix in PR #1234 would have its changelog entry in
+``changelog.d/1234.bugfix``, and contain content like "The security levels of
+Florbs are now validated when recieved over federation. Contributed by Jane
+Matrix.".
+
+Debian changelog
+----------------
+
+Changes which affect the debian packaging files (in ``debian``) are an
+exception.
+
+In this case, you will need to add an entry to the debian changelog for the
+next release. For this, run the following command::
+
+  dch
+
+This will make up a new version number (if there isn't already an unreleased
+version in flight), and open an editor where you can add a new changelog entry.

+If your change affects both the debian packaging *and* files outside the debian
+directory, you will need both a regular newsfragment *and* an entry in the

+
+Attribution
+~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Everyone who contributes anything to Matrix is welcome to be listed in the
+AUTHORS.rst file for the project in question. Please feel free to include a
+change to AUTHORS.rst in your pull request to list yourself and a short
+description of the area(s) you've worked on. Also, we sometimes have swag to
+give away to contributors - if you feel that Matrix-branded apparel is missing
+from your life, please mail us your shipping address to matrix at matrix.org and
