Merge tag 'v1.30.0' into hs/hacked-together-event-cache

Synapse 1.30.0 (2021-03-22)
===========================

Note that this release deprecates the ability for appservices to
call `POST /_matrix/client/r0/register`  without the body parameter `type`. Appservice
developers should use a `type` value of `m.login.application_service` as
per [the spec](https://matrix.org/docs/spec/application_service/r0.1.2#server-admin-style-permissions).
In future releases, calling this endpoint with an access token - but without a `m.login.application_service`
type - will fail.

No significant changes.

Synapse 1.30.0rc1 (2021-03-16)
==============================

Features
--------

- Add prometheus metrics for number of users successfully registering and logging in. ([\#9510](#9510), [\#9511](#9511), [\#9573](#9573))
- Add `synapse_federation_last_sent_pdu_time` and `synapse_federation_last_received_pdu_time` prometheus metrics, which monitor federation delays by reporting the timestamps of messages sent and received to a set of remote servers. ([\#9540](#9540))
- Add support for generating JSON Web Tokens dynamically for use as OIDC client secrets. ([\#9549](#9549))
- Optimise handling of incomplete room history for incoming federation. ([\#9601](#9601))
- Finalise support for allowing clients to pick an SSO Identity Provider ([MSC2858](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2858)). ([\#9617](#9617))
- Tell spam checker modules about the SSO IdP a user registered through if one was used. ([\#9626](#9626))

Bugfixes
--------

- Fix long-standing bug when generating thumbnails for some images with transparency: `TypeError: cannot unpack non-iterable int object`. ([\#9473](#9473))
- Purge chain cover indexes for events that were purged prior to Synapse v1.29.0. ([\#9542](#9542), [\#9583](#9583))
- Fix bug where federation requests were not correctly retried on 5xx responses. ([\#9567](#9567))
- Fix re-activating an account via the admin API when local passwords are disabled. ([\#9587](#9587))
- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.20 which caused incoming federation transactions to stack up, causing slow recovery from outages. ([\#9597](#9597))
- Fix a bug introduced in v1.28.0 where the OpenID Connect callback endpoint could error with a `MacaroonInitException`. ([\#9620](#9620))
- Fix Internal Server Error on `GET /_synapse/client/saml2/authn_response` request. ([\#9623](#9623))

Updates to the Docker image
---------------------------

- Make use of an improved malloc implementation (`jemalloc`) in the docker image. ([\#8553](#8553))

Improved Documentation
----------------------

- Add relayd entry to reverse proxy example configurations. ([\#9508](#9508))
- Improve the SAML2 upgrade notes for 1.27.0. ([\#9550](#9550))
- Link to the "List user's media" admin API from the media admin API docs. ([\#9571](#9571))
- Clarify the spam checker modules documentation example to mention that `parse_config` is a required method. ([\#9580](#9580))
- Clarify the sample configuration for `stats` settings. ([\#9604](#9604))

Deprecations and Removals
-------------------------

- The `synapse_federation_last_sent_pdu_age` and `synapse_federation_last_received_pdu_age` prometheus metrics have been removed. They are replaced by `synapse_federation_last_sent_pdu_time` and `synapse_federation_last_received_pdu_time`. ([\#9540](#9540))
- Registering an Application Service user without using the `m.login.application_service` login type will be unsupported in an upcoming Synapse release. ([\#9559](#9559))

Internal Changes
----------------

- Add tests to ResponseCache. ([\#9458](#9458))
- Add type hints to purge room and server notice admin API. ([\#9520](#9520))
- Add extra logging to ObservableDeferred when callbacks throw exceptions. ([\#9523](#9523))
- Fix incorrect type hints. ([\#9528](#9528), [\#9543](#9543), [\#9591](#9591), [\#9608](#9608), [\#9618](#9618))
- Add an additional test for purging a room. ([\#9541](#9541))
- Add a `.git-blame-ignore-revs` file with the hashes of auto-formatting. ([\#9560](#9560))
- Increase the threshold before which outbound federation to a server goes into "catch up" mode, which is expensive for the remote server to handle. ([\#9561](#9561))
- Fix spurious errors reported by the `config-lint.sh` script. ([\#9562](#9562))
- Fix type hints and tests for BlacklistingAgentWrapper and BlacklistingReactorWrapper. ([\#9563](#9563))
- Do not have mypy ignore type hints from unpaddedbase64. ([\#9568](#9568))
- Improve efficiency of calculating the auth chain in large rooms. ([\#9576](#9576))
- Convert `synapse.types.Requester` to an `attrs` class. ([\#9586](#9586))
- Add logging for redis connection setup. ([\#9590](#9590))
- Improve logging when processing incoming transactions. ([\#9596](#9596))
- Remove unused `stats.retention` setting, and emit a warning if stats are disabled. ([\#9604](#9604))
- Prevent attempting to bundle aggregations for state events in /context APIs. ([\#9619](#9619))
