Allow config of the backoff algorithm for the federation client. (#15754)
Adds three new configuration variables:

* destination_min_retry_interval is identical to before (10mn).
* destination_retry_multiplier is now 2 instead of 5, the maximum value will
  be reached slower.
* destination_max_retry_interval is one day instead of (essentially) infinity.

Capping this will cause destinations to continue to be retried sometimes instead
of being lost forever. The previous value was 2 ^ 62 milliseconds.

Re-introduce the outbound federation proxy (#15913)
Allow configuring the set of workers to proxy outbound federation traffic through (`outbound_federation_restricted_to`).

This is useful when you have a worker setup with `federation_sender` instances responsible for sending outbound federation requests and want to make sure *all* outbound federation traffic goes through those instances. Before this change, the generic workers would still contact federation themselves for things like profile lookups, backfill, etc. This PR allows you to set more strict access controls/firewall for all workers and only allow the `federation_sender`'s to contact the outside world.

Unix Sockets for HTTP Replication (#15708)
Unix socket support for `federation` and `client` Listeners has existed now for a little while(since [1.81.0](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/15353)), but there was one last hold out before it could be complete: HTTP Replication communication. This should finish it up. The Listeners would have always worked, but would have had no way to be talked to/at.

Remove `worker_replication_*` settings (#15491)
* Add master to the instance_map as part of Complement, have ReplicationEndpoint look at instance_map for master.

* Fix typo in drive by.

* Remove unnecessary worker_replication_* bits from unit tests and add master to instance_map(hopefully in the right place)

* Several updates:

1. Switch from master to main for naming the main process in the instance_map. Add useful constants for easier adjustment of names in the future.
2. Add backwards compatibility for worker_replication_* to allow time to transition to new style. Make sure to prioritize declaring main directly on the instance_map.
3. Clean up old comments/commented out code.
4. Adjust unit tests to match with new code.
5. Adjust Complement setup infrastructure to only add main to the instance_map if workers are used and remove now unused options from the worker.yaml template.

* Initial Docs upload

* Changelog

* Missed some commented out code that can go now

* Remove TODO comment that no longer holds true.

* Fix links in docs

* More docs

* Remove debug logging

* Apply suggestions from code review

arbitrary state keys, be a good Matrix citizen and ensure they don't
accidentally create an oversized event.
