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(...)`

This PR fixes#18154 to avoid de-deltaing state groups which resulted in
DB size temporarily increasing until the DB was `VACUUM`'ed. As a
result, less state groups will get deleted now.
It also attempts to improve performance by not duplicating work when
processing state groups it has already processed in previous iterations.

Revert "Add background job to clear unreferenced state groups (#18154)"
This mechanism is suspected of inserting large numbers of rows into
`state_groups_state`,
thus unreasonably increasing disk usage.
See: https://github.com/element-hq/synapse/issues/18217
This reverts commit 5121f9210c (#18154).

When purging history, we try and delete any state groups that become
unreferenced (i.e. there are no longer any events that directly
reference them). When we delete a state group that is referenced by
another state group, we "de-delta" that state group so that it no longer
refers to the state group that is deleted.
There are two bugs with this approach that we fix here:
1. There is a common pattern where we end up storing two state groups
when persisting a state event: the state before and after the new state
event, where the latter is stored as a delta to the former. When
deleting state groups we only deleted the "new" state and left (and
potentially de-deltaed) the old state. This was due to a bug/typo when
trying to find referenced state groups.
2. There are times where we store unreferenced state groups in the DB,
during the purging of history these would not get rechecked and instead
always de-deltaed. Instead, we should check for this case and delete any
unreferenced state groups rather than de-deltaing them.
The effect of the above bugs is that when purging history we'd end up
with lots of unreferenced state groups that had been de-deltaed (i.e.
stored as the full state). This can lead to dramatic increases in
storage space used.
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.

The original code is from @erikjohnston's branches which I've gotten in-shape to merge.
Some experimental prep work to enable external event caching based on #9379 & #12955. Doesn't actually move the cache at all, just lays the groundwork for async implemented caches.

Removes all redundant `# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-` lines from files, as python 3 automatically reads source code as utf-8 now.

Unfortunately this doesn't test re-joining the room since
that requires having another homeserver to query over
federation, which isn't easily doable in unit tests.
Replaces the `federation_ip_range_blacklist` configuration setting with an
`ip_range_blacklist` setting with wider scope. It now applies to:
* Federation
* Identity servers
* Push notifications
* Checking key validitity for third-party invite events
The old `federation_ip_range_blacklist` setting is still honored if present, but
with reduced scope (it only applies to federation and identity servers).
The idea is that in future tokens will encode a mapping of instance to position. However, we don't want to include the full instance name in the string representation, so instead we'll have a mapping between instance name and an immutable integer ID in the DB that we can use instead. We'll then do the lookup when we serialize/deserialize the token (we could alternatively pass around an `Instance` type that includes both the name and ID, but that turns out to be a lot more invasive).
