Avoid trying to get the state for outliers, which isn't a sensible thing to do.

We make multiple passes over this, so a regular iterable won't do.

If we locally generate a rejection for an invite received over federation, it
is stored as an outlier (because we probably don't have the state for the
room). However, currently we still generate a state group for it (even though
the state in that state group will be nonsense).

By setting the `outlier` param on `create_event`, we avoid the nonsensical
state.

I've argued in #11537 that poetry and tox don't cooperate well at the
moment. (See also #12119.) Therefore I'm pruning away bits of tox to make the transition to poetry easier. This change removes the commands for coverage.

We don't use coverage in anger at the moment. It shouldn't be too hard to add coverage as a dev-dependency and reintroduce this if we really want it.

* Add type hints to `tests/rest`

* newsfile

* change import from `SigningKey`

This ensures that the `latest_event` field of the bundled aggregation
for threads uses the same format as the other events in the response.

There's no reason to let people use long keys.

The Complement tests for MSC3030 are now merged, https://github.com/matrix-org/complement/pull/178

Synapse implmentation: https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/9445

* Move the `snapcraft` configuration to `contrib`.

We're happy for people to package this as a snap image if it's useful,
but we don't support or maintain it. I'd like to move the config to
`contrib` to reflect this state of affairs.

* Changelog

* Rename scripts-dev to have suffices

* Update references to `scripts-dev`

* Changelog

* These scripts don't pass mypy

* Remove unused mocks from `test_typing`

It's not clear what these do. `get_user_by_access_token` has the wrong
signature, including the return type. Tests all pass without these. I
think we should nuke them.

* Changelog

* Fixup imports

* Add type hints to `tests/rest/client`

Synapse 1.54.0rc1 (2022-03-02)
==============================

Please note that this will be the last release of Synapse that is compatible with Mjolnir 1.3.1 and earlier.
Administrators of servers which have the Mjolnir module installed are advised to upgrade Mjolnir to version 1.3.2 or later.

Features
--------

- Add support for [MSC3202](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/3202): sending one-time key counts and fallback key usage states to Application Services. ([\#11617](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11617))
- Improve the generated URL previews for some web pages. Contributed by @AndrewRyanChama. ([\#11985](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11985))
- Track cache invalidations in Prometheus metrics, as already happens for cache eviction based on size or time. ([\#12000](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12000))
- Implement experimental support for [MSC3720](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/3720) (account status endpoints). ([\#12001](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12001), [\#12067](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12067))
- Enable modules to set a custom display name when registering a user. ([\#12009](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12009))
- Advertise Matrix 1.1 and 1.2 support on `/_matrix/client/versions`. ([\#12020](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12020), ([\#12022](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12022))
- Support only the stable identifier for [MSC3069](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/3069)'s `is_guest` on `/_matrix/client/v3/account/whoami`. ([\#12021](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12021))
- Use room version 9 as the default room version (per [MSC3589](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/3589)). ([\#12058](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12058))
- Add module callbacks to react to user deactivation status changes (i.e. deactivations and reactivations) and profile updates. ([\#12062](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12062))

Bugfixes
--------

- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.48.0 where an edit of the latest event in a thread would not be properly applied to the thread summary. ([\#11992](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11992))
- Fix long-standing bug where the `get_rooms_for_user` cache was not correctly invalidated for remote users when the server left a room. ([\#11999](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11999))
- Fix a 500 error with Postgres when looking backwards with the [MSC3030](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/3030) `/timestamp_to_event?dir=b` endpoint. ([\#12024](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12024))
- Properly fix a long-standing bug where wrong data could be inserted into the `event_search` table when using SQLite. This could block running `synapse_port_db` with an `argument of type 'int' is not iterable` error. This bug was partially fixed by a change in Synapse 1.44.0. ([\#12037](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12037))
- Fix slow performance of `/logout` in some cases where refresh tokens are in use. The slowness existed since the initial implementation of refresh tokens in version 1.38.0. ([\#12056](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12056))
- Fix a long-standing bug where Synapse would make additional failing requests over federation for missing data. ([\#12077](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12077))
- Fix occasional `Unhandled error in Deferred` error message. ([\#12089](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12089))
- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.51.0 where incoming federation transactions containing at least one EDU would be dropped if debug logging was enabled for `synapse.8631_debug`. ([\#12098](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12098))
- Fix a long-standing bug which could cause push notifications to malfunction if `use_frozen_dicts` was set in the configuration. ([\#12100](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12100))
- Fix an extremely rare, long-standing bug in `ReadWriteLock` that would cause an error when a newly unblocked writer completes instantly. ([\#12105](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12105))
- Make a `POST` to `/rooms/<room_id>/receipt/m.read/<event_id>` only trigger a push notification if the count of unread messages is different to the one in the last successfully sent push. This reduces server load and load on the receiving device. ([\#11835](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11835))

Updates to the Docker image
---------------------------

- The Docker image no longer automatically creates a temporary volume at `/data`. This is not expected to affect normal usage. ([\#11997](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11997))
- Use Python 3.9 in Docker images by default. ([\#12112](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12112))

Improved Documentation
----------------------

- Document support for the `to_device`, `account_data`, `receipts`, and `presence` stream writers for workers. ([\#11599](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11599))
- Explain the meaning of spam checker callbacks' return values. ([\#12003](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12003))
- Clarify information about external Identity Provider IDs. ([\#12004](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12004))

Deprecations and Removals
-------------------------

- Deprecate using `synctl` with the config option `synctl_cache_factor` and print a warning if a user still uses this option. ([\#11865](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11865))
- Remove support for the legacy structured logging configuration (please see the the [upgrade notes](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/develop/upgrade#legacy-structured-logging-configuration-removal) if you are using `structured: true` in the Synapse configuration). ([\#12008](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12008))
- Drop support for [MSC3283](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/3283) unstable flags now that the stable flags are supported. ([\#12018](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12018))
- Remove the unstable `/spaces` endpoint from [MSC2946](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2946). ([\#12073](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12073))

Internal Changes

- Move common deduplication code down into `_auth_and_persist_outliers`. ([\#11994](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11994))
- Limit concurrent joins from applications services. ([\#11996](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11996))
- Preparation for faster-room-join work: when parsing the `send_join` response, get the `m.room.create` event from `state`, not `auth_chain`. ([\#12005](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12005), [\#12039](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12039))

- Upgrade Mypy to version 0.931. ([\#12030](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12030))
- Remove legacy `HomeServer.get_datastore()`. ([\#12031](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12031), [\#12070](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12070))
- Minor typing fixes. ([\#12034](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12034), [\#12069](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12069))

- Move CI checks out of tox, to facilitate a move to using poetry. ([\#12119](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/12119))

As a str is a sequence, the checks were not granular
enough and would allow lists or strings, when only
lists were valid.

* Two scripts are basically entry_points already
* Move and rename scripts/* to synapse/_scripts/*.py

* Modernizes code (f-strings, etc.)
* Fixes incorrect comments.
* Splits the test case into two.
* Factors out some duplicated code.

* Don't use `tox` for `check-sampleconfig`
* Don't use `tox` for check-newsfragment

* Pull runtime dep checks into their own module
* Reimplement `check_requirements` using `importlib`

I've tried to make this clearer. We start by working out which of
Synapse's requirements we need to be installed here and now. I was
surprised that there wasn't an easier way to see which packages were
installed by a given extra.

I've pulled out the error messages into functions that deal with "is
this for an extra or not". And I've rearranged the loop over two
different sets of requirements into one loop with a "must be instaled"
flag.

I hope you agree that this is clearer.

When we get a partial_state response from send_join, store information in the
database about it:
 * store a record about the room as a whole having partial state, and stash the
   list of member servers too.
 * flag the join event itself as having partial state
 * also, for any new events whose prev-events are partial-stated, note that
   they will *also* be partial-stated.

We don't yet make any attempt to interpret this data, so API calls (and a bunch
of other things) are just going to get incorrect data.

* Fix 'Unhandled error in Deferred'

Fixes a CRITICAL "Unhandled error in Deferred" log message which happened when
a function wrapped with `@cachedList` failed

* Minor optimisation to cachedListDescriptor

we can avoid re-using `missing`, which saves looking up entries in
`deferreds_map`, and means we don't need to copy it.

* Improve type annotation on CachedListDescriptor

* fix incorrect unwrapFirstError import

this was being imported from the wrong place

* Refactor `concurrently_execute` to use `yieldable_gather_results`

* Improve exception handling in `yieldable_gather_results`

Try to avoid swallowing so many stack traces.

* mark unwrapFirstError deprecated

* changelog

* Add type hints to `tests/rest/client`

* update `mypy.ini`

* newsfile

* add `test_register.py`

...and various code supporting it.

The /spaces endpoint was from an old version of MSC2946 and included
both a Client-Server and Server-Server API. Note that the unstable
/hierarchy endpoint (from the final version of MSC2946) is not yet
removed.
