Chris van Dijk 6334f6c1ea Remove hardcoded command paths in systemd unit files
Depending on the distro, common commands like sleep and chown may either
be located in /bin or /usr/bin.

Systemd added path lookup to ExecStart in v239, allowing only the
command name to be put in unit files and not the full path as
historically required. At least Ubuntu 18.04 LTS is however still on
v237 so we should maintain portability for a while longer.

Slavi Pantaleev 172b0fa88c Separate Facebook bridge configuration and data
Using a separate directory allows easier backups
(only need to back up the Ansible playbook configuration and the
bridge's `./data` directory).

The playbook takes care of migrating an existing database file
from the base directory into the `./data` directory.

In the future, we can also mount the configuration read-only,
to ensure the bridge won't touch it.
For now, mautrix-facebook is keen on rebuilding the `config.yaml`
file on startup though, so this will have to wait.

Slavi Pantaleev 330648a3e0 Make Facebook bridge configuration playbook-managed
Related to #193, but for the Facebook bridge.
(other bridges can be changed to do the same later).

This patch makes the bridge configuration entirely managed by the
Ansible playbook. The bridge's `config.yaml` and `registration.yaml`
configuration files are regenerated every time the playbook runs.

This allows us to apply updates to those files and to avoid
people having to manage the configuration files manually on the server.

-------------------------------------------------------------

A deficiency of the current approach to dumping YAML configuration in
`config.yaml` is that we strip all comments from it.
Later on, when the bridge actually starts, it will load and redump
(this time with comments), which will make the `config.yaml` file
change.

Subsequent playbook runs will report "changed" for the
"Ensure mautrix-facebook config.yaml installed" task, which is a little
strange.

We might wish to improve this in the future, if possible.

Still, it's better to have a (usually) somewhat meaningless "changed"
task than to what we had -- never rebuilding the configuration.

Slavi Pantaleev d6d6c152a3 Delay bridge startup to ensure Synapse is up
Bridges start matrix-synapse.service as a dependency, but
Synapse is sometimes slow to start, while bridges are quick to
hit it and die (if unavailable).

They'll auto-restart later, but .. this still breaks `--tags=start`,
which doesn't wait long enough for such a restart to happen.

This attempts to slow down bridge startup enough to ensure Synapse
is up and no failures happen at all.
