This doc is short but a useful guide to what the request log lines mean.

* Fix broken links in documentation

* newsfile

This is essentially an implementation of the proposal made at https://hackmd.io/@richvdh/BJYXQMQHO, though the details have ended up looking slightly different.

With the prior format, 1.33.0 / 1.33.1 / 1.33.2 got separate branches:

    release-v1.33.0
    release-v1.33.1
    release-v1.33.2

Under the new model, all three would share a common branch:

    release-v1.33

As before, RCs and actual releases exist as tags on these branches.

This better reflects our support model, e.g., that the "1.33" series had
a formal release followed by two patches / updates.

So that they render nicely in mdbook (see #10086), and so that we no longer have a mix of structured text languages in our documentation (excluding files outside of `docs/`).

Use a database table to hold the users that should have full presence sent to them, instead of something in-memory (#9823)

Add a config option which allows enabling opentracing by user id, eg for
debugging requests made by a test user.

MSC1772 specifies the m.room.create event should be sent as part
of the invite_state. This was done optionally behind an experimental
flag, but is now done by default due to MSC1772 being approved.

Now that cross signing exists there is much less of a need for other people to look at devices and verify them individually. This PR adds a config option to allow you to prevent device display names from being shared with other servers.

Synapse can be quite memory intensive, and unless care is taken to tune
the GC thresholds it can end up thrashing, causing noticable performance
problems for large servers. We fix this by limiting how often we GC a
given generation, regardless of current counts/thresholds.

This does not help with the reverse problem where the thresholds are set
too high, but that should only happen in situations where they've been
manually configured.

Adds a `gc_min_seconds_between` config option to override the defaults.

Fixes #9890.

Adds the `port` option with the default value to the sample config file.

Support the delete of a room through DELETE request and mark
previous request as deprecated through documentation.

Port "Allow users to click account renewal links multiple times without hitting an 'Invalid Token' page #74" from synapse-dinsic (#9832)

This attempts to be a direct port of https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse-dinsic/pull/74 to mainline. There was some fiddling required to deal with the changes that have been made to mainline since (mainly dealing with the split of `RegistrationWorkerStore` from `RegistrationStore`, and the changes made to `self.make_request` in test code).

At the moment, if you'd like to share presence between local or remote users, those users must be sharing a room together. This isn't always the most convenient or useful situation though.

This PR adds a module to Synapse that will allow deployments to set up extra logic on where presence updates should be routed. The module must implement two methods, `get_users_for_states` and `get_interested_users`. These methods are given presence updates or user IDs and must return information that Synapse will use to grant passing presence updates around.

A method is additionally added to `ModuleApi` which allows triggering a set of users to receive the current, online presence information for all users they are considered interested in. This is the equivalent of that user receiving presence information during an initial sync. 

The goal of this module is to be fairly generic and useful for a variety of applications, with hard requirements being:

* Sending state for a specific set or all known users to a defined set of local and remote users.
* The ability to trigger an initial sync for specific users, so they receive all current state.

The regex should be terminated so that subdomain matches of another

`room_invite_state_types` was inconvenient as a configuration setting, because
anyone that ever set it would not receive any new types that were added to the
defaults. Here, we deprecate the old setting, and replace it with a couple of
new settings under `room_prejoin_state`.

I've reiterated the advice about using `oidc` to migrate, since I've seen a few
people caught by this.

I've also removed a couple of the examples as they are duplicating the OIDC
documentation, and I think they might be leading people astray.
