The current configuration is handled for backwards compatibility,
but is considered deprecated.

Treat unknown encodings (according to lxml) as UTF-8
when generating a preview for HTML documents. This
isn't fully accurate, but will hopefully give a reasonable
title and summary.

This new version no longer has the problem of adding/removing a blank line in `.pyi` files, which black disagrees with. This would cause `isort` to slightly modify `.pyi` files, before `black` would subsequently modify back directly afterwards.

Relevant `isort` issue: https://github.com/pycqa/isort/issues/1284

Add forward extremities endpoint to rooms admin API

This is done by creating a custom `RedisFactory` subclass that
periodically pings all connections in its pool.

We also ensure that the `replyTimeout` param is non-null, so that we
timeout waiting for the reply to those pings (and thus triggering a
reconnect).

This expands the current shadow-banning feature to be usable via
the admin API and adds documentation for it.

A shadow-banned users receives successful responses to their
client-server API requests, but the events are not propagated into rooms.

Shadow-banning a user should be used as a tool of last resort and may lead
to confusing or broken behaviour for the client.

Synapse 1.26.0rc2 (2021-01-25)
==============================

Bugfixes
--------

- Fix receipts and account data not being sent down sync. Introduced in v1.26.0rc1. ([\#9193](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9193), [\#9195](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9195))
- Fix chain cover update to handle events with duplicate auth events. Introduced in v1.26.0rc1. ([\#9210](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9210))

Internal Changes
----------------

- Add an `oidc-` prefix to any `idp_id`s which are given in the `oidc_providers` configuration. ([\#9189](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9189))
- Bump minimum `psycopg2` version to v2.8. ([\#9204](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9204))

Treat the content as untrusted and do not assume it is of
the proper form.

Also add a warning on the admin API documentation.

As we use `execute_values` with the `fetch` parameter.

If no thumbnail of the requested type exists, return a 404 instead
of erroring. This doesn't quite match the spec (which does not define
what happens if no thumbnail can be found), but is consistent with
what Synapse already does.

The lists of source directories to lint between `tox.ini` and `lint.sh` became out of sync. This PR tightens them up and adds some comments reminding any future readers to keep the list in sync.

We have seen a failure mode here where if there are many in flight
unfinished IDs then marking an ID as finished takes a lot of CPU (as
calling deque.remove iterates over the list)

Introduced in #9104 

This wasn't picked up by the tests as this is all fine the first time you run Synapse (after upgrading), but then when you restart the wrong value is pulled from `stream_positions`. 

* Use execute_batch in more places

* Newsfile

... to avoid clashes with other SSO mechanisms

`execute_batch` does fewer round trips in postgres than `executemany`, but does not give a correct `txn.rowcount` result after.

This avoids a warning when uploading packages to PyPI via twine.
