Add tests for the IdP picker

You can't continue using a transaction once an exception has been
raised, so catching and dropping the error here is pointless and just
causes more errors.

I'm not even sure what this was supposed to do, but the fact it has python2isms
and nobody has noticed suggests it's not terribly important.

It doesn't seem to have been used since ff23e5ba.

We were running some linters on some files and some on others. Extract a common
setting and use it everywhere.

This is in preparation for moving `SendToDeviceServlet` off master

Currently `DeviceMessageHandler` only ever exists on master, but that is about to change.

... for running the tests with no optional deps.

If we are lacking an optional dependency, skip the tests that rely on it.

This can happen when using a split out state database and we've upgraded
the schema version without there being any changes in the state schema.

Synapse 1.25.0rc1 (2021-01-06)
==============================

Removal warning
---------------

The old [Purge Room API](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/tree/master/docs/admin_api/purge_room.md)
and [Shutdown Room API](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/tree/master/docs/admin_api/shutdown_room.md)
are deprecated and will be removed in a future release. They will be replaced by the
[Delete Room API](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/tree/master/docs/admin_api/rooms.md#delete-room-api).

`POST /_synapse/admin/v1/rooms/<room_id>/delete` replaces `POST /_synapse/admin/v1/purge_room` and
`POST /_synapse/admin/v1/shutdown_room/<room_id>`.
