The problem here is that we have cut-and-pasted an impl from Twisted, and then
failed to maintain it. It was fixed in Twisted in
https://github.com/twisted/twisted/pull/1047/files; let's do the same here.
* Remove redundant WrappedConnection
The matrix federation client uses an HTTP connection pool, which times out its
idle HTTP connections, so there is no need for any of this business.
* Correctly retry and back off if we get a HTTPerror response
* Refactor request sending to have better excpetions
MatrixFederationHttpClient blindly reraised exceptions to the caller
without differentiating "expected" failures (e.g. connection timeouts
etc) versus more severe problems (e.g. programming errors).
This commit adds a RequestSendFailed exception that is raised when
"expected" failures happen, allowing the TransactionQueue to log them as
warnings while allowing us to log other exceptions as actual exceptions.
prometheus_client 0.5 has a named-tuple Sample type with more member
than the old plain tuple had. This commit makes sure the unit test
detects this and changes the way it reads the sample.

Allow for the creation of a support user.
A support user can access the server, join rooms, interact with other users, but does not appear in the user directory nor does it contribute to monthly active user limits.
This implements both a SAML2 metadata endpoint (at
`/_matrix/saml2/metadata.xml`), and a SAML2 response receiver (at
`/_matrix/saml2/authn_response`). If the SAML2 response matches what's been
configured, we complete the SSO login flow by redirecting to the client url
(aka `RelayState` in SAML2 jargon) with a login token.
What we don't yet have is anything to build a SAML2 request and redirect the
user to the identity provider. That is left as an exercise for the reader.
This is mostly factoring out the post-CAS-login code to somewhere we can reuse
it for other SSO flows, but it also fixes the userid mapping while we're at it.
* Rip out half-implemented m.login.saml2 support
This was implemented in an odd way that left most of the work to the client, in
a way that I really didn't understand. It's going to be a pain to maintain, so
let's start by ripping it out.
* drop undocumented dependency on dateutil
It turns out we were relying on dateutil being pulled in transitively by
pysaml2. There's no need for that bloat.
* Add better diagnostics to flakey keyring test
* fix interpolation fail
* Check logcontexts before and after each test
* update changelog
* update changelog
* Some words about garbage collections and logcontexts
* Do a GC after each test to fix logcontext leaks
This feels like an awful hack, but...
* changelog
