Purge Remote Media API

The purge remote media API allows server admins to purge old cached remote media.

The API is:

POST /_synapse/admin/v1/purge_media_cache?before_ts=<unix_timestamp_in_ms>

{}

... which will remove all cached media that was last accessed before <unix_timestamp_in_ms>.

To use it, you will need to authenticate by providing an access_token for a server admin: see README.rst.

If the user re-requests purged remote media, synapse will re-request the media from the originating server.
