Some OpenID Connect providers (such as GitHub) use integer IDs which get returned via the OAuth flows. This causes an error when we attempt to save the remote ID into the database.

This is worked around by casting the remote ID to a string. I debated whether we should leave this up to the OidcMappingProvider, but we'll probably just have to end up explaining to people that you really need to return a string from that. I could be convinced it is up to OidcMappingProvider to abide by the specification it is given though.

Fixes #7795

won't this still cause problems due to numeric userids being reserved for guests?

I do not believe so since the map_user_attributes call below returns what will be used for the localpart of the mxid.

The GitHub example given uses a string there (I think GItHub has an immutable integer ID for each user and then the string ID, e.g. clokep for me).

Pretty much this remote_user_id is only put into the user_external_ids table. I can add a comment to clarify that though.

I clarified this slightly above (that this is used for the external ID).

Synapse 1.20.0rc1 (2020-09-08)
==============================

Removal warning
---------------

Some older clients used a [disallowed character](https://matrix.org/docs/spec/client_server/r0.6.1#post-matrix-client-r0-register-email-requesttoken) (`:`) in the `client_secret` parameter of various endpoints. The incorrect behaviour was allowed for backwards compatibility, but is now being removed from Synapse as most users have updated their client. Further context can be found at [\#6766](#6766).

Features
--------

- Add an endpoint to query your shared rooms with another user as an implementation of [MSC2666](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2666). ([\#7785](#7785))
- Iteratively encode JSON to avoid blocking the reactor. ([\#8013](#8013), [\#8116](#8116))
- Add support for shadow-banning users (ignoring any message send requests). ([\#8034](#8034), [\#8092](#8092), [\#8095](#8095), [\#8142](#8142), [\#8152](#8152), [\#8157](#8157), [\#8158](#8158), [\#8176](#8176))
- Use the default template file when its equivalent is not found in a custom template directory. ([\#8037](#8037), [\#8107](#8107), [\#8252](#8252))
- Add unread messages count to sync responses, as specified in [MSC2654](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2654). ([\#8059](#8059), [\#8254](#8254), [\#8270](#8270), [\#8274](#8274))
- Optimise `/federation/v1/user/devices/` API by only returning devices with encryption keys. ([\#8198](#8198))

Bugfixes
--------

- Fix a memory leak by limiting the length of time that messages will be queued for a remote server that has been unreachable. ([\#7864](#7864))
- Fix `Re-starting finished log context PUT-nnnn` warning when event persistence failed. ([\#8081](#8081))
- Synapse now correctly enforces the valid characters in the `client_secret` parameter used in various endpoints. ([\#8101](#8101))
- Fix a bug introduced in v1.7.2 impacting message retention policies that would allow federated homeservers to dictate a retention period that's lower than the configured minimum allowed duration in the configuration file. ([\#8104](#8104))
- Fix a long-standing bug where invalid JSON would be accepted by Synapse. ([\#8106](#8106))
- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse v1.12.0 which could cause `/sync` requests to fail with a 404 if you had a very old outstanding room invite. ([\#8110](#8110))
- Return a proper error code when the rooms of an invalid group are requested. ([\#8129](#8129))
- Fix a bug which could cause a leaked postgres connection if synapse was set to daemonize. ([\#8131](#8131))
- Clarify the error code if a user tries to register with a numeric ID. This bug was introduced in v1.15.0. ([\#8135](#8135))
- Fix a bug where appservices with ratelimiting disabled would still be ratelimited when joining rooms. This bug was introduced in v1.19.0. ([\#8139](#8139))
- Fix logging in via OpenID Connect with a provider that uses integer user IDs. ([\#8190](#8190))
- Fix a longstanding bug where user directory updates could break when unexpected profile data was included in events. ([\#8223](#8223))
- Fix a longstanding bug where stats updates could break when unexpected profile data was included in events. ([\#8226](#8226))
- Fix slow start times for large servers by removing a table scan of the `users` table from startup code. ([\#8271](#8271))

Updates to the Docker image
---------------------------

- Fix builds of the Docker image on non-x86 platforms. ([\#8144](#8144))
- Added curl for healthcheck support and readme updates for the change. Contributed by @maquis196. ([\#8147](#8147))

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

- Link to matrix-synapse-rest-password-provider in the password provider documentation. ([\#8111](#8111))
- Updated documentation to note that Synapse does not follow `HTTP 308` redirects due to an upstream library not supporting them. Contributed by Ryan Cole. ([\#8120](#8120))
- Explain better what GDPR-erased means when deactivating a user. ([\#8189](#8189))

Internal Changes

- Remove some unused database functions. ([\#8085](#8085))
- Add type hints to various parts of the codebase. ([\#8090](#8090), [\#8127](#8127), [\#8187](#8187), [\#8241](#8241), [\#8140](#8140), [\#8183](#8183), [\#8232](#8232), [\#8235](#8235), [\#8237](#8237), [\#8244](#8244))
- Return the previous stream token if a non-member event is a duplicate. ([\#8093](#8093), [\#8112](#8112))

- Remove `ChainedIdGenerator`. ([\#8123](#8123))
- Reduce the amount of whitespace in JSON stored and sent in responses. ([\#8124](#8124))

Update chat/matrix-synapse to 1.20.0
b9a5c7d 
Synapse 1.20.0 (2020-09-22)
===========================

No significant changes since v1.20.0rc5.

Removal warning
---------------

Historically, the [Synapse Admin
API](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/tree/master/docs) has been
accessible under the `/_matrix/client/api/v1/admin`,
`/_matrix/client/unstable/admin`, `/_matrix/client/r0/admin` and
`/_synapse/admin` prefixes. In a future release, we will be dropping support
for accessing Synapse's Admin API using the `/_matrix/client/*` prefixes. This
makes it easier for homeserver admins to lock down external access to the Admin
API endpoints.

Synapse 1.20.0rc5 (2020-09-18)
==============================

In addition to the below, Synapse 1.20.0rc5 also includes the bug fix that was included in 1.19.3.

Features
--------

- Add flags to the `/versions` endpoint for whether new rooms default to using E2EE. ([\#8343](matrix-org/synapse#8343))


Bugfixes
--------

- Fix rate limiting of federation `/send` requests. ([\#8342](matrix-org/synapse#8342))
- Fix a longstanding bug where back pagination over federation could get stuck if it failed to handle a received event. ([\#8349](matrix-org/synapse#8349))


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

- Blacklist [MSC2753](matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2753) SyTests until it is implemented. ([\#8285](matrix-org/synapse#8285))


Synapse 1.20.0rc4 (2020-09-16)
==============================

Synapse 1.20.0rc4 is identical to 1.20.0rc3, with the addition of the security fix that was included in 1.19.2.


Synapse 1.20.0rc3 (2020-09-11)
==============================

Bugfixes
--------

- Fix a bug introduced in v1.20.0rc1 where the wrong exception was raised when invalid JSON data is encountered. ([\#8291](matrix-org/synapse#8291))


Synapse 1.20.0rc2 (2020-09-09)
==============================

Bugfixes
--------

- Fix a bug introduced in v1.20.0rc1 causing some features related to notifications to misbehave following the implementation of unread counts. ([\#8280](matrix-org/synapse#8280))
