Merge tag 'v1.59.0rc1' into develop

Synapse 1.59.0rc1 (2022-05-10)
==============================

This release makes several changes that server administrators should be aware of:

- Device name lookup over federation is now disabled by default. ([\#12616](#12616))
- The `synapse.app.appservice` and `synapse.app.user_dir` worker application types are now deprecated. ([\#12452](#12452), [\#12654](#12654))

See [the upgrade notes](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/upgrade.md#upgrading-to-v1590) for more details.

Additionally, this release removes the non-standard `m.login.jwt` login type from Synapse. It can be replaced with `org.matrix.login.jwt` for identical behaviour. This is only used if `jwt_config.enabled` is set to `true` in the configuration. ([\#12597](#12597))

Features
--------

- Support [MSC3266](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3266) room summaries over federation. ([\#11507](#11507))
- Implement [changes](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals@4a77139) to [MSC2285 (hidden read receipts)](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2285). Contributed by @SimonBrandner. ([\#12168](#12168), [\#12635](#12635), [\#12636](#12636), [\#12670](#12670))
- Extend the [module API](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/release-v1.59/synapse/module_api/__init__.py) to allow modules to change actions for existing push rules of local users. ([\#12406](#12406))
- Add the `notify_appservices_from_worker` configuration option (superseding `notify_appservices`) to allow a generic worker to be designated as the worker to send traffic to Application Services. ([\#12452](#12452))
- Add the `update_user_directory_from_worker` configuration option (superseding `update_user_directory`) to allow a generic worker to be designated as the worker to update the user directory. ([\#12654](#12654))
- Add new `enable_registration_token_3pid_bypass` configuration option to allow registrations via token as an alternative to verifying a 3pid. ([\#12526](#12526))
- Implement [MSC3786](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3786): Add a default push rule to ignore `m.room.server_acl` events. ([\#12601](#12601))
- Add new `mau_appservice_trial_days` configuration option to specify a different trial period for users registered via an appservice. ([\#12619](#12619))

Bugfixes
--------

- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.48.0 where the latest thread reply provided failed to include the proper bundled aggregations. ([\#12273](#12273))
- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.22.0 where attempting to send a large amount of read receipts to an application service all at once would result in duplicate content and abnormally high memory usage. Contributed by Brad & Nick @ Beeper. ([\#12544](#12544))
- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.57.0 which could cause `Failed to calculate hosts in room` errors to be logged for outbound federation. ([\#12570](#12570))
- Fix a long-standing bug where status codes would almost always get logged as `200!`, irrespective of the actual status code, when clients disconnect before a request has finished processing. ([\#12580](#12580))
- Fix race when persisting an event and deleting a room that could lead to outbound federation breaking. ([\#12594](#12594))
- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.53.0 where bundled aggregations for annotations/edits were incorrectly calculated. ([\#12633](#12633))
- Fix a long-standing bug where rooms containing power levels with string values could not be upgraded. ([\#12657](#12657))
- Prevent memory leak from reoccurring when presence is disabled. ([\#12656](#12656))

Updates to the Docker image
---------------------------

- Explicitly opt-in to using [BuildKit-specific features](https://github.com/moby/buildkit/blob/master/frontend/dockerfile/docs/syntax.md) in the Dockerfile. This fixes issues with building images in some GitLab CI environments. ([\#12541](#12541))
- Update the "Build docker images" GitHub Actions workflow to use `docker/metadata-action` to generate docker image tags, instead of a custom shell script. Contributed by @henryclw. ([\#12573](#12573))

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

- Update SQL statements and replace use of old table `user_stats_historical` in docs for Synapse Admins. ([\#12536](#12536))
- Add missing linebreak to `pipx` install instructions. ([\#12579](#12579))
- Add information about the TCP replication module to docs. ([\#12621](#12621))
