* Don't build distribution pkgs in tests.yml
* Run `release-artifacts` on release branches
* Use backend-meta workflow for packaging

use `HEAD` rather than hardcoding `master`

Since #11811 there has been general Complement flakiness around networking.
It seems like tests are hitting the wrong containers. In an effort to diagnose
the cause of this, as well as reduce its impact on this project, set the
parallelsim to 1 (no parallelism) when running tests.

If this fixes the flakiness then this indicates the cause and I can diagnose
this further. If this doesn't fix the flakiness then that implies some kind
of test pollution which also helps to diagnose this further.

* CI: run Complement on the VM, not inside Docker

This requires https://github.com/matrix-org/complement/pull/289



We now run Complement on the VM instead of inside a Docker container.
This is to allow Complement to bind to any high-numbered port when it
starts up its own federation servers. We want to do this to allow for
more concurrency when running complement tests. Previously, Complement
only ever bound to `:8448` when running its own federation server. This
prevented multiple federation tests running at the same time as they would
fight each other on the port. This did however allow Complement to run
in Docker, as the host could just port forward `:8448` to allow homeserver
containers to communicate to Complement. Now that we are using random
ports however, we cannot use Docker to run Complement. This ends up
being a good thing because:
 - Running Complement tests locally is closer to how they run in CI.
 - Allows the `CI` env var to be removed in Complement.
 - Slightly speeds up runs as we don't need to pull down the Complement
   image prior to running tests. This assumes GHA caches actions sensibly.

PyNaCl's recent 1.5.0 release on PyPi includes arm64 wheels, which means our
arm64 docker images now build in a sensible amount of time, so we can skip the
amd64-only build.

This also makes additional updates where the implementation
had drifted from the approved MSC.

Unstable endpoints will be removed at a later data.

This does not remove the unstable field and still parses both.
Handling of the unstable field will need to be removed in the
future.

I'd find it helpful to have a docker image corresponding to current develop,
without having to build my own.

Fix broken export-data admin command and add a test for it to CI 

Instead of only dumping them if trial passes.

This also turns off calculating code coverage, as we didn't use it and it was a lot of noise

This should fix stale deleted files being still accessible.

This should ensure GHA runs synapse against the same-named sytest branch

Setting `update_existing: true` in the `create-an-issue` GitHub Action
will avoid opening duplicate issues if an open issue already exists with
an identical title.

If no open issues match the title, then a new issue will be created.

This helps avoid spamming our issue tracker should there be a failure
when testing against Twisted's trunk.

This PR also pins the SHA of the `create-an-issue` action to mitigate
the risk of a malicious actor gaining access to JasonEtco's account.

This creates a GHA workflow which runs at 8am every day, and runs mypy, trial and sytest against Twisted's current trunk. If any of the jobs fail, it opens an issue.
