Adds the option to load the Redis password from a file, instead of
giving it in the config directly. The code is similar to how it’s done
for `registration_shared_secret_path`. I changed the example in the
documentation to represent the best practice regarding the handling of
secrets.
Reading secrets from files has the security advantage of separating the
secrets from the config. It also simplifies secrets management in
Kubernetes.
This is to address an issue in which `m.presence` results on initial
sync are not returning entries of users who are currently offline.
The original behaviour was from
https://github.com/element-hq/synapse/issues/1535
This change is useful for applications that use the
presence system for tracking user profile information/updates (e.g.
https://github.com/element-hq/synapse/pull/16992 or for profile status
messages).
This is gated behind a new configuration option to avoid performance
impact for applications that don't need this, as a pragmatic solution
for now.
A simple change to update the docs where default values were missing.

This PR ports the logic from the
[synapse_auto_accept_invite](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse-auto-accept-invite)
module into synapse.
I went with the naive approach of injecting the "module" next to where
third party modules are currently loaded. If there is a better/preferred
way to handle this, I'm all ears. It wasn't obvious to me if there was a
better location to add this logic that would cleanly apply to all
incoming invite events.
Relies on https://github.com/element-hq/synapse/pull/17166 to fix linter
errors.
This is to allow clients to query the configured federation whitelist.
Disabled by default.

Prior to this PR, if a request to create a public (public as in
published to the rooms directory) room violated the room list
publication rules set in the
[config](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/usage/configuration/config_documentation.html#room_list_publication_rules),
the request to create the room was denied and the room was not created.
This PR changes the behavior such that when a request to create a room
published to the directory violates room list publication rules, the
room is still created but the room is not published to the directory.
This adds a module API which allows a module to update a user's
presence state/status message. This is useful for controlling presence
from an external system.
To fully control presence from the module the presence.enabled config
parameter gains a new state of "untracked" which disables internal tracking
of presence changes via user actions, etc. Only updates from the module will
be persisted and sent down sync properly).
There are no known bugs in the message retention code, but
it is possible that there still exists race conditions. Additional
fixes will be made as reported.
Also add restore of purge/shutdown rooms after a synapse restart.
