Make the purge request return quickly, and allow scripts to poll for updates.

Queuing up purges doesn't sound like a good thing.

Factor run_in_background out from preserve_fn

Add a metric which increments when a request is received

It's useful to know when there are peaks in incoming requests - which isn't
quite the same as there being peaks in outgoing responses, due to the time
taken to handle requests.

rephrase the OPTIONS and unrecognised request handling so that they look
similar to the common flow.

It annoys me that we create temporary function objects when there's really no
need for it. Let's factor the gubbins out of preserve_fn and start using it.

Fix race in sync when joining room

The race happens when the user joins a room at the same time as doing a
sync. We fetch the current token and then get the rooms the user is in.
If the join happens after the current token, but before we get the rooms
we end up sending down a partial room entry in the sync.

This is fixed by looking at the stream ordering of the membership
returned by get_rooms_for_user, and handling the case when that stream
ordering is after the current token.

use bcrypt.checkpw

Implement purge_history by timestamp

Remove ability for AS users to call /events and /sync

Split Directory store

in bcrypt 3.1.0 checkpw got introduced (already 2 years ago)
This makes use of that with enhancements which might get introduced
by that

This functionality has been deprecated for a while as well as being
broken for a while. Instead of fixing it lets just remove it entirely.

Test and fix find_first_stream_ordering_after_ts

It seemed to suffer from a bunch of off-by-one errors.

Expose this as a public function which can be called outside a txn

Fix bug with delayed cache invalidation stream

Split registration store

We poked the notifier before updated the current token for the cache
invalidation stream. This mean that sometimes the update wouldn't be
sent until the next time a cache was invalidated.

Add missing yield during 3pid signature checks

 Fix typo in getting replication account data processing

Split out SignatureStore and EventFederationStore

Improve caching for read_marker API

We add a new storage function to get a paritcular type of room account
data. This allows us to prefill the cache when updating that acount
data.

Move RoomMemberHandler out of Handlers
