    significantly reduce database size. Synapse will attempt to upgrade the current

    want to consider migrating to using Postgres before upgrading very large SQLite
    daabases

    * Allow clients to ask for the whole of a single state event (PR #1094)
    * Add is_direct param to /createRoom (PR #1108)
    * Add pagination support to publicRooms (PR #1121)
    * Add very basic filter API to /publicRooms (PR #1126)
    * Add basic direct to device messaging support for E2E (PR #1074, #1084, #1104,
      #1111)
    
    Changes:
    
    * Move to storing state_groups_state as deltas, greatly reducing DB size (PR
      #1065)
    * Reduce amount of state pulled out of the DB during common requests (PR #1069)
    * Allow PDF to be rendered from media repo (PR #1071)
    * Reindex state_groups_state after pruning (PR #1085)
    * Clobber EDUs in send queue (PR #1095)
    * Conform better to the CAS protocol specification (PR #1100)
    * Limit how often we ask for keys from dead servers (PR #1114)
