The final part (for now) of my work to implement a username picker in synapse itself. The idea is that we allow UsernameMappingProviders to return localpart=None, in which case, rather than redirecting the browser back to the client, we redirect to a username-picker resource, which allows the user to enter a username. We then complete the SSO flow (including doing the client permission checks).

The static resources for the username picker itself (in https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/tree/rav/username_picker/synapse/res/username_picker) are essentially lifted wholesale from https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-synapse-saml-mozilla/tree/master/matrix_synapse_saml_mozilla/res. As the comment says, we might want to think about making them customisable, but that can be a follow-up.

Fixes #8876. Based on #8941, #8946, #8951.

Looks good overall! There's a bunch of comments, but I think most are straightforward. I'm unsure if the changes to the HTML/JavaScript/CSS makes sense to do here or in a separate PR.

Synapse 1.25.0rc1 (2021-01-06)
==============================

Removal warning
---------------

The old [Purge Room API](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/tree/master/docs/admin_api/purge_room.md)
and [Shutdown Room API](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/tree/master/docs/admin_api/shutdown_room.md)
are deprecated and will be removed in a future release. They will be replaced by the
[Delete Room API](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/tree/master/docs/admin_api/rooms.md#delete-room-api).

`POST /_synapse/admin/v1/rooms/<room_id>/delete` replaces `POST /_synapse/admin/v1/purge_room` and
`POST /_synapse/admin/v1/shutdown_room/<room_id>`.

Features

- Add optional HTTP authentication to replication endpoints. ([\#8853](#8853))
- Improve the error messages printed as a result of configuration problems for extension modules. ([\#8874](#8874))
- Add the number of local devices to Room Details Admin API. Contributed by @dklimpel. ([\#8886](#8886))
- Add `X-Robots-Tag` header to stop web crawlers from indexing media. Contributed by Aaron Raimist. ([\#8887](#8887))

- Add an `email.invite_client_location` configuration option to send a web client location to the invite endpoint on the identity server which allows customisation of the email template. ([\#8930](#8930))
- The search term in the list room and list user Admin APIs is now treated as case-insensitive. ([\#8931](#8931))
- Apply an IP range blacklist to push and key revocation requests. ([\#8821](#8821), [\#8870](#8870), [\#8954](#8954))

Synapse 1.25.0 (2021-01-13)
===========================

Ending Support for Python 3.5 and Postgres 9.5
----------------------------------------------

With this release, the Synapse team is announcing a formal deprecation policy for our platform dependencies, like Python and PostgreSQL:

All future releases of Synapse will follow the upstream end-of-life schedules.

Which means:

* This is the last release which guarantees support for Python 3.5.
* We will end support for PostgreSQL 9.5 early next month.
* We will end support for Python 3.6 and PostgreSQL 9.6 near the end of the year.

Crucially, this means __we will not produce .deb packages for Debian 9 (Stretch) or Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial)__ beyond the transition period described below.

The website https://endoflife.date/ has convenient summaries of the support schedules for projects like [Python](https://endoflife.date/python) and [PostgreSQL](https://endoflife.date/postgresql).

If you are unable to upgrade your environment to a supported version of Python or Postgres, we encourage you to consider using the [Synapse Docker images](./INSTALL.md#docker-images-and-ansible-playbooks) instead.

### Transition Period

We will make a good faith attempt to avoid breaking compatibility in all releases through the end of March 2021. However, critical security vulnerabilities in dependencies or other unanticipated circumstances may arise which necessitate breaking compatibility earlier.

We intend to continue producing .deb packages for Debian 9 (Stretch) and Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial) through the transition period.
