Preparations for removing BaseDendrite (#3016)
Preparations to actually remove/replace `BaseDendrite`.
Quite a few changes:
- SyncAPI accepts an `fulltext.Indexer` interface (fulltext is removed
from `BaseDendrite`)
- Caches are removed from `BaseDendrite`
- Introduces a `Router` struct (likely to change)
  - also fixes #2903
- Introduces a `sqlutil.ConnectionManager`, which should remove
`base.DatabaseConnection` later on
- probably more

This component roughly corresponds to "Client Room Send" and "Client Sync" on the WIRING diagram. This component produces multiple binaries.

Internals

  • HTTP routing is done using gorilla/mux and the routing paths are in the routing package.

Writers

  • Each HTTP "write operation" (/createRoom, /rooms/$room_id/send/$type, etc) is contained entirely to a single file in the writers package.
  • This file contains the request and response struct definitions, as well as a Validate() bool function to validate incoming requests.
  • The entry point for each write operation is a stand-alone function as this makes testing easier. All dependencies should be injected into this function, including server keys/name, etc.
