Run `isort`, `flake8` and `black` over the `contrib/` directory and `synctl` script. The latter was already being done in CI, but now the linting script does it too.

I made a mistake in https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/6921 - the quotes break the postgres container's startup script (or docker-compose), which makes initdb fail: https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/6921#issuecomment-590657154

The mount in the form of ./matrix-config:/etc overwrites the contents of the container /etc folder. Since all valid ca certificates are stored in /etc, the synapse.push.httppusher, for example, cannot validate the certificate from matrix.org.

This reverts commit dc874789.

* update version of black and also fix the mypy config being overridden

Allow Synapse to send registration emails + choose Synapse or an external server to handle 3pid validation (#5987)

This is a combination of a few different PRs, finally all being merged into `develop`:

* #5875 
* #5876 
* #5868 (This one added the `/versions` flag but the flag itself was actually [backed out](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/commit/891afb57cbdf9867f2848341b29c75d6f35eef5a#diff-e591d42d30690ffb79f63bb726200891) in #5969. What's left is just giving /versions access to the config file, which could be useful in the future)
* #5835 
* #5969 
* #5940

Clients should not actually use the new registration functionality until https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/5972 is merged.

UPGRADE.rst, changelog entries and config file changes should all be reviewed closely before this PR is merged.

This is mostly a documentation change, but also adds a default value for
SYNAPSE_CONFIG_PATH, so that running from the generated config is the default,
and will Just Work provided your config is in the right place.

This points the reverse links at the intended location.
