... in order to debug some problems we've been having with certain events not
being sent when expected.

broken in 5938928c :-S

As the comment says, there is no need to process such events, and indeed we
need to avoid doing so.

Fixes #12509.

Check we're on the right branch before tagging, and on the right tag before uploading

* Abort if we're on the wrong branch
* Check we have the right tag checked out
* Clarify that `publish` only releases to GitHub

This works by taking a row level lock on the `rooms` table at the start of both transactions, ensuring that they don't run at the same time. In the event persistence transaction we also check that there is an entry still in the `rooms` table.

I can't figure out how to do this in SQLite. I was just going to lock the table, but it seems that we don't support that in SQLite either, so I'm *really* confused as to how we maintain integrity in SQLite when using `lock_table`....

This was originally added when we first added a `MemoryHandler` to the default
log config back in https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/8040, to ensure
that we didn't explode with an infinite loop if there was an error formatting
the logs.

Since then, we made additional improvements to logging which make this
workaround redundant. In particular:

 * we no longer attempt to log un-UTF8-decodable byte sequences, which were the
   most likely cause of an error in the first place.

 * https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/8268 ensures that in the unlikely
   case that there *is* an error, it won't cause an infinite loop.

* Allow unused ignores in "bleeding edge" CI

Where "bleeding edge" means the Twisted Trunk and Latest Deps jobs.

Follow up from #12531.
Resolves #12574.

* Use `--extras all` in latest deps mypy CI

Twisted trunk job already does this.

Missed in #12531.

* changelog

The status code of requests must always be set, regardless of client
disconnection, otherwise they will always be logged as 200!.

When configuring the return values of mocks, prefer awaitables from
`make_awaitable` over `defer.succeed`. `Deferred`s are only awaitable
once, so it is inappropriate for a mock to return the same `Deferred`
multiple times.

Also update `run_in_background` to support functions that return
arbitrary awaitables.

Not enforced in config yet. One day.

Over time we've begun to use newer versions of mypy, typeshed, stub
packages---and of course we've improved our own annotations. This makes
some type ignore comments no longer necessary. I have removed them.

There was one exception: a module that imports `select.epoll`. The
ignore is redundant on Linux, but I've kept it ignored for those of us
who work on the source tree using not-Linux. (#11771)

I'm more interested in the config line which enforces this. I want
unused ignores to be reported, because I think it's useful feedback when
annotating to know when you've fixed a problem you had to previously
ignore.

* Installing extras before typechecking

Lacking an easy way to install all extras generically, let's bite the bullet and
make install the hand-maintained `all` extra before typechecking.

Now that https://github.com/matrix-org/backend-meta/pull/6 is merged to
the release/v1 branch.
