As per MSC1763, 'Retention is only considered for non-state events.', so don't filter out state events based on the room's retention policy.

Implement MSC2326 (label based filtering)

The intention here is to make it clearer which fields we can expect to be
populated when: notably, that the _event_type etc aren't used for the
synchronous impl of EventContext.

The `http_proxy` and `HTTPS_PROXY` env vars can be set to a `host[:port]` value which should point to a proxy.

The address of the proxy should be excluded from IP blacklists such as the `url_preview_ip_range_blacklist`.

The proxy will then be used for
 * push
 * url previews
 * phone-home stats
 * recaptcha validation
 * CAS auth validation

It will *not* be used for:
 * Application Services
 * Identity servers
 * Outbound federation
 * In worker configurations, connections from workers to masters

Fixes #4198.
