Updates reverse_proxy.rst with information about nginx' URI normalisation.

Added that synapse_user needs a database to access before it can auth
Noted you'll need to enable password auth, linked to pg_hba.conf docs

* Configure and initialise tracer

Includes config options for the tracer and sets up JaegerClient.

* Scope manager using LogContexts

We piggy-back our tracer scopes by using log context.
The current log context gives us the current scope. If new scope is
created we create a stack of scopes in the context.

* jaeger is a dependency now

* Carrier inject and extraction for Twisted Headers

* Trace federation requests on the way in and out.

The span is created in _started_processing and closed in
_finished_processing because we need a meaningful log context.

* Create logcontext for new scope.

Instead of having a stack of scopes in a logcontext we create a new
context for a new scope if the current logcontext already has a scope.

* Remove scope from logcontext if logcontext is top level

* Disable tracer if not configured

* typo

* Remove dependence on jaeger internals

* bools

* Set service name

* :Explicitely state that the tracer is disabled

* Black is the new black

* Newsfile

* Code style

* Use the new config setup.

* Generate config.

* Copyright

* Rename config to opentracing

* Remove user whitelisting

* Empty whitelist by default

* User ConfigError instead of RuntimeError

* Use isinstance

* Use tag constants for opentracing.

* Remove debug comment and no need to explicitely record error

* Two errors a "s(c)entry"

* Docstrings!

* Remove debugging brainslip

* Homeserver Whitlisting

* Better opentracing config comment

* linting

* Inclue worker name in service_name

* Make opentracing an optional dependency

* Neater config retreival

* Clean up dummy tags

* Instantiate tracing as object instead of global class

* Inlcude opentracing as a homeserver member.

* Thread opentracing to the request level

* Reference opetnracing through hs

* Instantiate dummy opentracin g for tests.

* About to revert, just keeping the unfinished changes just in case

* Revert back to global state, commit number:

9ce4a3d9067bf9889b86c360c05ac88618b85c4f

* Use class level methods in tracerutils

* Start and stop requests spans in a place where we
have access to the authenticated entity

* Seen it, isort it

* Make sure to close the active span.

* I'm getting black and blue from this.

* Logger formatting

* Outdated comment

* Import opentracing at the top

* Return a contextmanager

* Start tracing client requests from the servlet

* Return noop context manager if not tracing

* Explicitely say that these are federation requests

* Include servlet name in client requests

* Use context manager

* Move opentracing to logging/

* Seen it, isort it again!

* Ignore twisted return exceptions on context exit

* Escape the scope

* Scopes should be entered to make them useful.

* Nicer decorator names

* Just one init, init?

* Don't need to close something that isn't open

* Docs make you smarter

Helps address #5444

Fixes #5533

Adds information about how to install and run black on the codebase.

This is helpful when generating a config file for running synapse under docker.

Because sticking it in the same place as the config isn't necessarily the right
thing to do.

This has no useful purpose on python3, and is generally a source of confusion.

E_TOO_MANY_NEGATIVES

Add FAQ questions to federate.md. Add a health warning making it clear that the 1711 upgrade FAQ is now out of date.

Set default room version to v4.

Sends password reset emails from the homeserver instead of proxying to the identity server. This is now the default behaviour for security reasons. If you wish to continue proxying password reset requests to the identity server you must now enable the email.trust_identity_server_for_password_resets option.

This PR is a culmination of 3 smaller PRs which have each been separately reviewed:

* #5308
* #5345
* #5368

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.

1.0 upgrade/install notes

fixes #4951

Improve documentation of monthly active user blocking and mau_trial_days

These new rules allow a user to instead route only matrix traffic, allowing them to run matrix on the domain without affecting their existing websites

Replaces DEFAULT_ROOM_VERSION constant with a method that first checks the config, then returns a hardcoded value if the option is not present.

That hardcoded value is now located in the server.py config file.
