Slavi Pantaleev 70796703d3 Run Synapse workers in their own containers
This switches the `docker exec` method of spawning
Synapse workers inside the `matrix-synapse` container with
dedicated containers for each worker.

We also have dedicated systemd services for each worker,
so this are now:
- more consistent with everything else (we don't use systemd
instantiated services anywhere)
- we don't need the "parse systemd instance name into worker name +
port" part
- we don't need to keep track of PIDs manually
- we don't need jq (less depenendencies)
- workers dying would be restarted by systemd correctly, like any other
service
- `docker ps` shows each worker separately and we can observe resource
usage

Marcel Partap 2d1b9f2dbf synapse workers: reworkings + get endpoints from upstream docs via awk
(yes, a bit awkward and brittle… xD)

Marcel Partap 501efee07e synapse workers: supply systemd with actual worker PIDs (requires jq)
also, worker.yaml.j2:
  - hone worker_name
  - remove worker_pid_file entry (would only be used if worker_daemonize
    set to true; also, synapse only knows about the container namespace
    and thus can not provide the required host-view PID)

Marcel Partap d2e61af224 Add worker_name to synapse worker config template
& restrict federation listener; frontend_proxy / user_dir don't need it

Marcel Partap 353bc7c362 Add initial support for synapse workers
· needs documentation; no checks yet for port clashes or typos in worker name
· according to https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/wiki/Workers-setup-with-nginx#results
  about 90% of requests go to the synchrotron endpoint
· thus, the synchrotron worker is especially suited to be load-balanced
· most of the other workers are documented to support only a single instance
