Note: In order to fix the "state events have the following fields: [no words]" bug (1827) we need to resolve references on common event types. When doing this we ultimately end up with more fields than may be required to explain the section, however this commit alters the section descriptions to just say "these fields" instead of "these additional fields".
This is also preferable over trying to get the inheritance reversed in the common event types, as the `/sync` endpoint has a high amount of reliance on partial events definitions.
As per [MSC1452](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/issues/1452)
Fixes https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/issues/1254
Although MSC1452 focuses on just the warnings part of the server notices, the base for notices has not been established in the spec. This commit adds the needed support to be able to handle notices.
No intentional divergences from the proposal are included in this changeset. There are a few additions which are used in practice although not defined in the proposal, such as who is responsible for aesthetics, sending notices, and other misc rules.
Original proposal: https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/1659
Implementation proofs (some traversing of the PR tree may be required to get all of them):
* https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/4483
* https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/4499
This doesn't intentionally change anything from the proposal.
**Implementation details**:
The simple part of this is the introduction of a rooms/v3.html document. The somewhat unclear part is the stuff done to the s2s definitions. This pulls `unsigned_pdu` out to `unsigned_pdu_base` (all fields except `event_id`) where it can be reused in `pdu` and `pdu_v3` (for rooms v3). These definitions are further moved into the room version specifications where they can highlight the exact schemas in detail.
Version 1 has been updated to include the pre-existing event format, however the core principles of the room have not been changed. The same applies to room version 2. Room versions have immutable core principles once in the spec, otherwise these format changes would land in a pre-existing version.
The client-server API event formats will need updating, however that is being punted to a different commit to try and keep these changes reviewable.
Versions are actually on a scale of recommendations, and are expected to be created as needed. The scale presented here (develop/beta/default/recommended/mandatory) is a more wordy version of what was previously discussed/intended for room versions - the labels aren't final and may be changed.
The "Room Specification" (or "Room Version Specification") is the specification that defines which room versions do what and are intended to be documents which speak the truth about how rooms operate under the hood.
The approach taken here is a bit different than other specifications. For starters, the specification is versioned in this project instead of relying on the matrix.org repository to track compiled HTML. This is done for a couple reasons, the first being we're still developing the v1 specification while concurrently making a v2 spec and the second being trying to reduce the reliance on matrix.org's repository for specifications.
Because the room spec is built into versions, some changes needed to be made. The `targets.yaml` now has a special syntax for indicating what version something is at, and the changelog generator can handle rendering different versions of the same changelog (as parsed from the RST). Some additional work has been put in to the changelog parsing to allow us to reference the v1 room spec as "v1" without having to sacrifice clarity in the changelog headings.
Finally, this moves the state resolution algorithms into the versioned
spec as a result of MSC1759 (https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/1759).
Note: this does not introduce the concept of versioned schemas (tabs) that I was previously working with. There's currently no use for them, so they are shelved elsewhere.
Because this is the first release, it has several moving parts to it:
* The version variables have been defined.
* The towncrier changelog has been prepared for future modifications.
* The templating has been updated to better support future versions of the specification.
* A release process document has been created.
* Fix the event schema to represent the real world
* Add the module to the spec targets
* Remove incomplete thought from the client behaviour
* Link to the account data API
* Minor word choice changes

Adds the /msisdn' 3pid type and generally fleshes out what a 3pid
is and how they work.
This merges most of the work from Max Dor in https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/1039
with some tweaks and additions.
