This adds configuration options (under an `oembed` section) to
configure which URLs are matched to use oEmbed for URL
previews.

Point to the book where possible, and use hyperlinks to github to refer to files not included in the book.

- Removed page summaries from CONTRIBUTING and installation pages as 
this information was already in the table of contents on the right hand side
- Fixed some broken links in CONTRIBUTING
- Added margin-right tag for when table of contents is being shown
(otherwise the text in the page sometimes overlaps with it)

* Update reverse_proxy.md

* Create 10708.doc

When a user deletes an email from their account it will
now also remove all pushers for that email and that user
(even if these pushers were created by a different client)

* Fix the titles in the OIDC documentation

Having them as links broke the table-of-contents rendering in mdbook.
Plus there's no reason for only some of the provider titles to be links.

* Changelog

* Add link to google idp docs

Fixes https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/7867

Port the PresenceRouter module interface to the new generic interface introduced in v1.37.0

Several configuration sections are using separate settings for custom template directories, which can be confusing. This PR adds a new top-level configuration for a custom template directory which is then used for every module. The only exception is the consent templates, since the consent template directory require a specific hierarchy, so it's probably better that it stays separate from everything else.

This adds a new API GET /_synapse/admin/v1/username_available?username=foo to check if a username is available. It is the counterpart to https://matrix.org/docs/spec/client_server/r0.6.0#get-matrix-client-r0-register-available, except that it works even if registration is disabled.

This is mostly useful in case the server offers TLS, but doesn't present a valid certificate.

Per issue #9812 using `url_preview_ip_range_blacklist` with a proxy via `HTTPS_PROXY` or `HTTP_PROXY` environment variables has some inconsistent bahavior than mentioned. This PR changes the following:

- Changes the Sample Config file to include a note mentioning that `url_preview_ip_range_blacklist` and `ip_range_blacklist` is ignored when using a proxy
- Changes some logic in synapse/config/repository.py to send a warning when both `*ip_range_blacklist` configs and a proxy environment variable are set and but no longer throws an error.

Port the third-party event rules interface to the generic module interface introduced in v1.37.0

This adds an API for third-party plugin modules to implement account validity, so they can provide this feature instead of Synapse. The module implementing the current behaviour for this feature can be found at https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse-email-account-validity.

To allow for a smooth transition between the current feature and the new module, hooks have been added to the existing account validity endpoints to allow their behaviours to be overridden by a module.
