This defaults `ip_range_blacklist` to reserved IP ranges and also adds an
`ip_range_whitelist` setting to override it.

When using `add_header` nginx will literally add a header. If a
`content-type` header is already configured (for example through a
server wide default), this means we end up with 2 content-type headers,
like so:

```
content-type: text/html
content-type: application/json
access-control-allow-origin: *
```

That doesn't make sense. Instead, we want the content type of that
block to only be `application/json` which we can achieve using
`default_type` instead.

This is due to compatibility issues with old Python versions.

I'm tempted to remove this section entirely, but it's helpful for admins who are trying to figure out why their Synapse is crashing on start with ACME errors.

This reverts commit e0c01296.

As discussed at

don't think this is an improvement.

Synapse was added to the ports tree in Nov, 2019 by Renaud Allard (https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-ports&m=157417848805329).
With the release of OpenBSD 6.7 on May 22, 2020 a pre-compiled binary is available as well.

In particular, we depend on `typing.TYPE_CHECKING`, which is only present in
3.5.2.

It turns out that Ubuntu Xenial, despite having a package called `python 3
(3.5.1-3)`, actually has python 3.5.2, so I think this is fine.

update debian installation instructions to recommend installing `virtualenv` instead of `python3-virtualenv` (#6892)

* change debian package from python3-virtualenv to virtualenv

The virtualenv package is needed for the virtualenv command. The
virtualenv package depends on python3-virtualenv (at least since
debian jessie) so there is no need to specify python3-virtualenv
additionally.

They're optional.

Also update the postgres docs a bit for clarity(?)

We don't ship jessie packages, so these were a bit misleading.
