Stop installing Matrix Console by default

Add a welcome page to the static resources

Disable pager for ci script

... otherwise it hangs

This is largely a precursor for the removal of the bundled webclient. The idea
is to present a page at / which reassures people that something is working, and
to give them some links for next steps.

The welcome page lives at `/_matrix/static/`, so is enabled alongside the other
`static` resources (which, in practice, means the client API is enabled). We'll
redirect to it from `/` if we have nothing better to display there.

It would be nice to have a way to disable it (in the same way that you might
disable the nginx welcome page), but I can't really think of a good way to do
that without a load of ickiness.

It's based on the work done by @krombel for #2601.

Notes on upgrading to python3, and README updates.

Remove obsolete settings from docker homeserver.yaml

These aren't used, because we have a `log_config` setting.

Use labels to tag builds with their SHA1 version.

Replace mentions of Vector with Riot

This is useful for homeservers not intended for users, such as bot-only homeservers or ones that only process IoT data.

This is a bit of a half-assed effort at fixing https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/4252. Fundamentally the right answer is to drop support for Python 2.

Drop sent_transactions

Fix removing pushers on python 3

Add a basic .editorconfig

This should fix some "Starting db connection from sentinel context" warnings,
and will mean we get metrics for these processes.

It turns out that we accept events with non-ascii IDs, which would later cause
an explosion during state res.
