While the current version of the spec doesn't say much about how this endpoint uses filters (see matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2338), the current implementation is that some fields of an EventFilter apply (the ones that are used when running the SQL query) and others don't (the ones that are used by the filter itself) because we don't call event_filter.filter(...). This seems counter-intuitive and probably not what we want (as per the matrix-doc issue and matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2344 (comment)) so this PR fixes it.

It also adds a bunch of tests to test filtering on /context and reorganises the labelling tests in room.py to minimise code duplication.

It also adds tests for using /search with a filter, since it's another endpoint the spec says should accept being given a filter, and update the copyright comments for the files edited by #6301.

Commits should be reviewable independently.

Synapse 1.7.0rc1 (2019-12-09)
=============================

Features
--------

- Implement per-room message retention policies. ([\#5815](#5815), [\#6436](#6436))
- Add etag and count fields to key backup endpoints to help clients guess if there are new keys. ([\#5858](#5858))
- Add `/admin/v2/users` endpoint with pagination. Contributed by Awesome Technologies Innovationslabor GmbH. ([\#5925](#5925))
- Require User-Interactive Authentication for `/account/3pid/add`, meaning the user's password will be required to add a third-party ID to their account. ([\#6119](#6119))
- Implement the `/_matrix/federation/unstable/net.atleastfornow/state/<context>` API as drafted in MSC2314. ([\#6176](#6176))
- Configure privacy-preserving settings by default for the room directory. ([\#6354](#6354))
- Add ephemeral messages support by partially implementing [MSC2228](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2228). ([\#6409](#6409))
- Add support for [MSC 2367](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2367), which allows specifying a reason on all membership events. ([\#6434](#6434))

Bugfixes
--------

- Transfer non-standard power levels on room upgrade. ([\#6237](#6237))
- Fix error from the Pillow library when uploading RGBA images. ([\#6241](#6241))
- Correctly apply the event filter to the `state`, `events_before` and `events_after` fields in the response to `/context` requests. ([\#6329](#6329))
- Fix caching devices for remote users when using workers, so that we don't attempt to refetch (and potentially fail) each time a user requests devices. ([\#6332](#6332))
- Prevent account data syncs getting lost across TCP replication. ([\#6333](#6333))
- Fix bug: TypeError in `register_user()` while using LDAP auth module. ([\#6406](#6406))
- Fix an intermittent exception when handling read-receipts. ([\#6408](#6408))
- Fix broken guest registration when there are existing blocks of numeric user IDs. ([\#6420](#6420))
- Fix startup error when http proxy is defined. ([\#6421](#6421))
- Fix error when using synapse_port_db on a vanilla synapse db. ([\#6449](#6449))
- Fix uploading multiple cross signing signatures for the same user. ([\#6451](#6451))
- Fix bug which lead to exceptions being thrown in a loop when a cross-signed device is deleted. ([\#6462](#6462))
- Fix `synapse_port_db` not exiting with a 0 code if something went wrong during the port process. ([\#6470](#6470))
- Improve sanity-checking when receiving events over federation. ([\#6472](#6472))
- Fix inaccurate per-block Prometheus metrics. ([\#6491](#6491))
- Fix small performance regression for sending invites. ([\#6493](#6493))
- Back out cross-signing code added in Synapse 1.5.0, which caused a performance regression. ([\#6494](#6494))

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

- Update documentation and variables in user contributed systemd reference file. ([\#6369](#6369), [\#6490](#6490))
- Fix link in the user directory documentation. ([\#6388](#6388))
- Add build instructions to the docker readme. ([\#6390](#6390))
- Switch Ubuntu package install recommendation to use python3 packages in INSTALL.md. ([\#6443](#6443))
- Write some docs for the quarantine_media api. ([\#6458](#6458))
- Convert CONTRIBUTING.rst to markdown (among other small fixes). ([\#6461](#6461))

Deprecations and Removals
-------------------------

- Remove admin/v1/users_paginate endpoint. Contributed by Awesome Technologies Innovationslabor GmbH. ([\#5925](#5925))
- Remove fallback for federation with old servers which lack the /federation/v1/state_ids API. ([\#6488](#6488))

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

- Add benchmarks for structured logging and improve output performance. ([\#6266](#6266))
- Improve the performance of outputting structured logging. ([\#6322](#6322))
- Refactor some code in the event authentication path for clarity. ([\#6343](#6343), [\#6468](#6468), [\#6480](#6480))
- Clean up some unnecessary quotation marks around the codebase. ([\#6362](#6362))
- Complain on startup instead of 500'ing during runtime when `public_baseurl` isn't set when necessary. ([\#6379](#6379))
- Add a test scenario to make sure room history purges don't break `/messages` in the future. ([\#6392](#6392))

Synapse 1.7.0 (2019-12-13)
==========================

This release changes the default settings so that only local authenticated users can query the server's room directory. See the [upgrade notes](UPGRADE.rst#upgrading-to-v170) for details.

Support for SQLite versions before 3.11 is now deprecated. A future release will refuse to start if used with an SQLite version before 3.11.

Administrators are reminded that SQLite should not be used for production instances. Instructions for migrating to Postgres are available [here](docs/postgres.md). A future release of synapse will, by default, disable federation for servers using SQLite.

No significant changes since 1.7.0rc2.

Synapse 1.7.0rc2 (2019-12-11)
=============================

Bugfixes
--------

- Fix incorrect error message for invalid requests when setting user's avatar URL. ([\#6497](#6497))
- Fix support for SQLite 3.7. ([\#6499](#6499))
- Fix regression where sending email push would not work when using a pusher worker. ([\#6507](#6507), [\#6509](#6509))
