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.
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.

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.
Our documentation has a history of using a document's name as a way to link to it, such as "See [workers.md]() for details". This makes sense when you're traversing a directory of files, but less sense when the files are abstracted away - as they are on the documentation website.
This PR changes the links to various documentation pages to something that fits better into the surrounding sentence, as you would when making any hyperlink on the web.

The presence router docs include some sample homeserver config. At some point we changed the name of the [config option](859dc05b36/docs/sample_config.yaml (L104-L113)), but forgot to update the docs.
I've also added `presence.enabled: true` to the example, as that's the new way to enable presence (the `presence_enabled` option has been deprecated).
This PR:
* Converts UPGRADE.rst to markdown and moves the contents into the `docs/` directory.
* Updates the contents of UPGRADE.rst to point to the website instead.
* Updates links around the codebase that point to UPGRADE.rst.
`pandoc` + some manual editing was used to convert from RST to md.
Implemented config option sso.update_profile_information to keep user's display name in sync with the SSO displayname.
