Don't send device list updates upon registration (#3307)
Fixes https://github.com/matrix-org/dendrite/issues/3273

As we otherwise send down device list updates which are merely useful
for the user and causes tests to be flakey:

```
 TestPushSync/Adding_a_push_rule_wakes_up_an_incremental_/sync (10ms)
      push_test.go:57: no pushrules found in sync response: {"next_batch":"s0_0_0_0_0_1_1_0_1","device_lists":{"changed":["@user-1:hs1"]}}
```

What this does: If a `PerformDeviceCreation` request is coming from
registering an account, it does **not** send device list updates, as
they are merely useful (no joined rooms, no one to inform) . In all
other cases, the behavior is unchanged and device list updates are sent
as usual.

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.
