We use `export default` begrudgingly here. Ideally we'd use just `export`, though this entire SDK expects things to be exported as a default. Instead of breaking everything, we'll sacrifice our export pattern for a smaller diff - a later commit can always do the default export -> regular export conversion.
With a switch to Only One Webpack™ we need a way to help developers generate the component index without a concurrent watch task. The best way to do this is to have developers import their components, but how do they do that when we support skins? The answer in this commit is to change skinning.
Skinning now expects to receive your list of overrides instead of the react-sdk+branded components. For Riot this means we send over *only* the Vector components and not Vector+react-sdk.
Components can then be annotated with the `replaceComponent` decorator to have them be skinnable. The decorator must take a string with the dot path of the component because we can't reliably calculate it ourselves, sadly.
The decorator does a call to `getComponent` which is where the important part of the branded components not including the react-sdk is important: if the branded app includes the react-sdk then the decorator gets executed before the skin has finished loading, leading to all kinds of fun errors. This is also why the skinner lazily loads the react-sdk components to avoid importing them too early, breaking the app.
The decorator will end up receiving null for a component because of the getComponent loop mentioned: the require() call is still in progress when the decorator is called, therefore we can't error out. All usages of getComponent() within the app are safe to not need such an error (the return won't be null, and developers shouldn't use getComponent() after this commit anyways).
The AuthPage, being a prominent component, has been converted to demonstrate this working. Changes to riot-web are required to have this work.
The reskindex script has also been altered to reflect these skinning changes - it no longer should set the react-sdk as a parent. The eventual end goal is to get rid of `getComponent()` entirely as it'll be easily replaced by imports.
This hides the identity server at first from the custom server auth flows. For
the flows that may need an IS if the HS requires it (registration, password
reset), we then check with the HS before proceeding further and reveal the IS
field if it is in fact needed.

This performs liveliness checks on the auth pages to try and show a friendlier error. Earlier checks in the app startup are expected to not block the app from loading on such failures.

The Forgot Password screen wasn't checking the default server name for a value
before showing it, leading to a possible "Your Matrix account on <blank>"
message.
Fixes https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/9507
Now that auth flows can show a server name like `example.com` which might
delegate the HS to some other server, it could be confusing to see text like
"Sign in to example.com", especially if `example.com` runs an identity service,
uses SSO, has its own account system, or other things like this.
To clarify that we mean Matrix accounts, all auth flows are updated to talk in
terms of "<verb> your Matrix account on <server>".
Fixes part of
https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/8763#issuecomment-464823909.
If a default server name is set and the current HS URL is the default HS URL,
we'll display that name in the "your account" text on the forgot password form.
This can be a bit more user friendly, especially when the HS is delegated to
somewhere such as Modular, since you'll then see "example.com" instead of
"example.modular.im", which you have no direct relationship with as a user.
This is the key bit of https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/8763 for
forgot password.
