The idea here is that if an instance persists an event via the replication HTTP API it can return before we receive that event over replication, which can lead to races where code assumes that persisting an event immediately updates various caches (e.g. current state of the room).
Most of Synapse doesn't hit such races, so we don't do the waiting automagically, instead we do so where necessary to avoid unnecessary delays. We may decide to change our minds here if it turns out there are a lot of subtle races going on.
People probably want to look at this commit by commit.

Documentation on setting up redis (#7446)
Rework UI Auth session validation for registration (#7455)
Fix errors from malformed log line (#7454)
Drop support for redis.dbid (#7450)
By persisting the user interactive authentication sessions to the database, this fixes
situations where a user hits different works throughout their auth session and also
allows sessions to persist through restarts of Synapse.
If an error happened while processing a SAML AuthN response, or a client
ends up doing a `GET` request to `/authn_response`, then render a
customisable error page rather than a confusing error.
