We have various constants to try and avoid mistyping of durations, e.g.
`ONE_HOUR_SECONDS * MILLISECONDS_PER_SECOND`, however this can get a
little verbose and doesn't help with typing.
Instead, let's move towards a dedicated `Duration` class (basically a
[`timedelta`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#timedelta-objects)
with helper methods).
This PR introduces the new types and converts all usages of the existing
constants with it. Future PRs may work to move the clock methods to also
use it (e.g. `call_later` and `looping_call`).
Reviewable commit-by-commit.
We add some logic to expire sliding sync connections if they get old or
if there is too much pending data to return.
The values of the constants are picked fairly arbitrarily, these are
currently:
1. More than 100 rooms with pending events if the connection hasn't been
used in over an hour
2. The connection hasn't been used for over a week

Introduce `Clock.call_when_running(...)` to wrap startup code in a
logcontext, ensuring we can identify which server generated the logs.
Background:
> Ideally, nothing from the Synapse homeserver would be logged against the `sentinel`
> logcontext as we want to know which server the logs came from. In practice, this is not
> always the case yet especially outside of request handling.
>
> Global things outside of Synapse (e.g. Twisted reactor code) should run in the
> `sentinel` logcontext. It's only when it calls into application code that a logcontext
> gets activated. This means the reactor should be started in the `sentinel` logcontext,
> and any time an awaitable yields control back to the reactor, it should reset the
> logcontext to be the `sentinel` logcontext. This is important to avoid leaking the
> current logcontext to the reactor (which would then get picked up and associated with
> the next thing the reactor does).

Also adds a lint to prefer `Clock.call_when_running(...)` over
`reactor.callWhenRunning(...)`

I thought ruff check would also format, but it doesn't.
This runs ruff format in CI and dev scripts. The first commit is just a
run of `ruff format .` in the root directory.
