Where we want to render a request against a specific Resource, call the global
make_request() function rather than the one in HomeserverTestCase, allowing us
to pass in an appropriate `Site`.

* Remove `on_timeout_cancel` from `timeout_deferred`

The `on_timeout_cancel` param to `timeout_deferred` wasn't always called on a
timeout (in particular if the canceller raised an exception), so it was
unreliable. It was also only used in one place, and to be honest it's easier to
do what it does a different way.

* Fix handling of connection timeouts in outgoing http requests

Turns out that if we get a timeout during connection, then a different
exception is raised, which wasn't always handled correctly.

To fix it, catch the exception in SimpleHttpClient and turn it into a
RequestTimedOutError (which is already a documented exception).

Also add a description to RequestTimedOutError so that we can see which stage
it failed at.

* Fix incorrect handling of timeouts reading federation responses

This was trapping the wrong sort of TimeoutError, so was never being hit.

The effect was relatively minor, but we should fix this so that it does the
expected thing.

* Fix inconsistent handling of `timeout` param between methods

`get_json`, `put_json` and `delete_json` were applying a different timeout to
the response body to `post_json`; bring them in line and test.

Some Linux distros have begun disabling TLSv1.0 and TLSv1.1 by default
for security reasons, for example in Fedora 33 onwards:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/StrongCryptoSettings2



Use TLSv1.2 for the fake TLS servers created in the test suite, to avoid
failures due to OpenSSL disallowing TLSv1.0:

    <twisted.python.failure.Failure OpenSSL.SSL.Error: [('SSL routines',
    'ssl_choose_client_version', 'unsupported protocol')]>

* Pull Sentinel out of LoggingContext

... and drop a few unnecessary references to it

* Factor out LoggingContext.current_context

move `current_context` and `set_context` out to top-level functions.

Mostly this means that I can more easily trace what's actually referring to
LoggingContext, but I think it's generally neater.

* move copy-to-parent into `stop`

this really just makes `start` and `stop` more symetric. It also means that it
behaves correctly if you manually `set_log_context` rather than using the
context manager.

* Replace `LoggingContext.alive` with `finished`

Turn `alive` into `finished` and make it a bit better defined.

Extends #5794 etc to the SimpleHttpClient so that it also applies to non-federation requests.

Fixes #7092.

The `http_proxy` and `HTTPS_PROXY` env vars can be set to a `host[:port]` value which should point to a proxy.

The address of the proxy should be excluded from IP blacklists such as the `url_preview_ip_range_blacklist`.

The proxy will then be used for
 * push
 * url previews
 * phone-home stats
 * recaptcha validation
 * CAS auth validation

It will *not* be used for:
 * Application Services
 * Identity servers
 * Outbound federation
 * In worker configurations, connections from workers to masters

Fixes #4198.

This refactors MatrixFederationAgent to move the SRV lookup into the
endpoint code, this has two benefits:
	1. Its easier to retry different host/ports in the same way as
	   HostnameEndpoint.
	2. We avoid SRV lookups if we have a free connection in the pool

If we have recently seen a valid well-known for a domain we want to
retry on (non-final) errors a few times, to handle temporary blips in
networking/etc.

This gives a bit of a grace period where we can attempt to refetch a
remote `well-known`, while still using the cached result if that fails.

Hopefully this will make the well-known resolution a bit more torelant
of failures, rather than it immediately treating failures as "no result"
and caching that for an hour.

It costs both us and the remote server for us to fetch the well known
for every single request we send, so we add a minimum cache period. This
is set to 5m so that we still honour the basic premise of "refetch
frequently".

* Pull config_dir_path and data_dir_path calculation out of read_config_files

* Pass config_dir_path and data_dir_path into read_config

Add some tests for bad certificates for federation and .well-known connections

There are a few changes going on here:

* We make checking the signature on a key server response optional: if no
  verify_keys are specified, we trust to TLS to validate the connection.

* We change the default config so that it does not require responses to be
  signed by the old key.

* We replace the old 'perspectives' config with 'trusted_key_servers', which
  is also formatted slightly differently.

* We emit a warning to the logs every time we trust a key server response
  signed by the old key.

Migrate all tests to use the dict-based config format instead of hanging items off HomeserverConfig (#5171)
