We might not need the cursor at all.

* Add a background update to clear tombstoned rooms from the directory

* use the ABC metaclass

I want to do some key rotation, and it is silly that we don't have a way to do
this.

This encapsulates config for a given database and is the way to get new
connections.

Replace every instance of `logger.warn` with `logger.warning` as the former is deprecated.

Make `synapse_port_db` correctly create indexes in the PostgreSQL database, by having it run the background updates on the database before migrating the data.

To ensure we're migrating the right data, also block the port if the SQLite3 database still has pending or ongoing background updates.

Fixes #4877 

Small fix to synapse_port_db to be able to convert from database schema v56.

Fixes #5306

* port hash_password

* changelog

Broadly three things here:

* disable W504 which seems a bit whacko
* remove a bunch of `as e` expressions from exception handlers that don't use
  them
* use `r""` for strings which include backslashes

Also, we don't use pep8 any more, so we can get rid of the duplicate config
there.

Fixes https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/3050.

Improve logging and comments. Group all the stuff to do with inspecting tables
together rather than creating the port tables in the middle.

We really shouldn't spit out "Failed to create port table", it looks scary.
