Merge tag 'v1.55.0' into babolivier/dinsic_1.58

Synapse 1.55.0 (2022-03-22)
===========================

This release removes a workaround introduced in Synapse 1.50.0 for Mjolnir compatibility. **This breaks compatibility with Mjolnir 1.3.1 and earlier. ([\#11700](matrix-org/synapse#11700; Mjolnir users should upgrade Mjolnir before upgrading Synapse to this version.

This release also moves the location of the `synctl` script; see the [upgrade notes](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/upgrade.md#synctl-script-has-been-moved) for more details.

Internal Changes
----------------

- Tweak copy for default Single Sign-On account details template to better adhere to mobile app store guidelines. ([\#12265](matrix-org/synapse#12265), [\#12260](matrix-org/synapse#12260))

Synapse 1.55.0rc1 (2022-03-15)

- Fix a long-standing bug when a `filter` argument with `event_fields` which did not include the `unsigned` field could result in a 500 error on `/sync`. ([\#12234](matrix-org/synapse#12234))

Improved Documentation
----------------------

- Fix complexity checking config example in [Resource Constrained Devices](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/v1.54/other/running_synapse_on_single_board_computers.html) docs page. ([\#11998](matrix-org/synapse#11998))
