Adds the `--no-secrets-in-config` command line option that makes Synapse reject all configurations containing keys with in-line secret values. Currently this rejects - `turn_shared_secret` - `registration_shared_secret` - `macaroon_secret_key` - `recaptcha_private_key` - `recaptcha_public_key` - `experimental_features.msc3861.client_secret` - `experimental_features.msc3861.jwk` - `experimental_features.msc3861.admin_token` - `form_secret` - `redis.password` - `worker_replication_secret` > [!TIP] > Hey, you! Yes, you! 😊 If you think this list is missing an item, please leave a comment below. Thanks :) This PR complements my other PRs[^1] that add the corresponding `_path` variants for this class of config options. It enables admins to enforce a policy of no secrets in configuration files and guards against accident and malice. Because I consider the flag `--no-secrets-in-config` to be security-relevant, I did not add a corresponding `--secrets-in-config` flag; this way, if Synapse command line options are appended at various places, there is no way to weaken the once-set setting with a succeeding flag.
