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

Add warnings to ip_range_blacklist usage with proxies (#10129)
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.

Add a module type for account validity (#9884)
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.

Docs: Use something other than the document name to describe a page (#10399)
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.

Fix the homeserver config example in presence router docs (#10288)
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).

Standardise the module interface (#10062)
This PR adds a common configuration section for all modules (see docs). These modules are then loaded at startup by the homeserver. Modules register their hooks and web resources using the new `register_[...]_callbacks` and `register_web_resource` methods of the module API.

ACME v1 has been fully decommissioned for existing installs on June 1st 2021(see https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/end-of-life-plan-for-acmev1/88430/27), so we can now safely remove it from Synapse.

Always require users to re-authenticate for dangerous operations. (#10184)
Dangerous actions means deactivating an account, modifying an account
password, or adding a 3PID.

Other actions (deleting devices, uploading keys) can re-use the same UI
auth session if ui_auth.session_timeout is configured.

Name release branches just after major.minor (#10013)
With the prior format, 1.33.0 / 1.33.1 / 1.33.2 got separate branches:

    release-v1.33.0
    release-v1.33.1
    release-v1.33.2

Under the new model, all three would share a common branch:

    release-v1.33

As before, RCs and actual releases exist as tags on these branches.

This better reflects our support model, e.g., that the "1.33" series had
a formal release followed by two patches / updates.
