This change will apply the `email` & `picture` provided by OIDC to the
new user account when registering a new user via OIDC. If the user is
directed to the account details form, this change makes sure they have
been selected before applying them, otherwise they are omitted. In
particular, this change ensures the values are carried through when
Synapse has consent configured, and the redirect to the consent form/s
are followed.
I have tested everything manually. Including:
- with/without consent configured
- allowing/not allowing the use of email/avatar (via
`sso_auth_account_details.html`)
- with/without automatic account detail population (by un/commenting the
`localpart_template` option in synapse config).

file](https://element-hq.github.io/synapse/latest/development/contributing_guide.html#changelog).
The entry should:
- Be a short description of your change which makes sense to users.
"Fixed a bug that prevented receiving messages from other servers."
instead of "Moved X method from `EventStore` to `EventWorkerStore`.".
- Use markdown where necessary, mostly for `code blocks`.
- End with either a period (.) or an exclamation mark (!).
- Start with a capital letter.
- Feel free to credit yourself, by adding a sentence "Contributed by
@github_username." or "Contributed by [Your Name]." to the end of the
entry.
* [X] [Code

This makes it easy to store UNIX sockets with correct permissions. Those
would be located in /run/synapse which is the directory used in many
examples in Synapse configuration manual. Additionally, the directory
and sockets are deleted when Synapse is shut down.
Since Synapse 1.76.0, any module which registers a `on_new_event`
callback would brick the ability to join remote rooms.
This is because this callback tried to get the full state of the room,
which would end up in a deadlock.

The following module would brick the ability to join remote rooms:
```python
from typing import Any, Dict, Literal, Union
import logging
from synapse.module_api import ModuleApi, EventBase
logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
class MyModule:
def __init__(self, config: None, api: ModuleApi):
self._api = api
self._config = config
self._api.register_third_party_rules_callbacks(
on_new_event=self.on_new_event,
)
async def on_new_event(self, event: EventBase, _state_map: Any) -> None:
logger.info(f"Received new event: {event}")
@staticmethod
def parse_config(_config: Dict[str, Any]) -> None:
return None
```
This is technically a breaking change, as we are now passing partial
state on the `on_new_event` callback.
However, this callback was broken for federated rooms since 1.76.0, and
local rooms have full state anyway, so it's unlikely that it would
change anything.
Prior to this PR, if a request to create a public (public as in
published to the rooms directory) room violated the room list
publication rules set in the
[config](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/usage/configuration/config_documentation.html#room_list_publication_rules),
the request to create the room was denied and the room was not created.
This PR changes the behavior such that when a request to create a room
published to the directory violates room list publication rules, the
room is still created but the room is not published to the directory.

An administrator should know whether he wants to set a password or not.
There are many uses cases where a blank password is required.
- Use of only some users with SSO.
- Use of bots with password, users with SSO
