As I was working on https://github.com/element-hq/synapse/pull/20218, I
noticed what seemed to be an illegal configuration of synapse.
- `require_auth_for_profile_requests`: blocks profile requests unless
authenticated
- `limit_profile_requests_to_users_who_share_rooms`: blocks profile
requests unless authenticated user share a room with requested user
This, I think, should be an illegal config:
```
require_auth_for_profile_requests = false
limit_profile_requests_to_users_who_share_rooms = true
```
As of now, with such a config the shared-room check is never applied: a
profile can be requested anonymously, and also by an authenticated user
who doesn't share a room.

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

Spawning from wanting to [run a load
test](https://github.com/element-hq/synapse-rust-apps/pull/397) against
the Complement Docker image of Synapse and see metrics from the
homeserver.
### Why not just provide your own homeserver config?
Probably possible but it gets tricky when you try to use the workers
variant of the Docker image (`docker/Dockerfile-workers`). The way to
workaround it would probably be to `yq` edit everything in a script and
change `/data/homeserver.yaml` and `/conf/workers/*.yaml` to add the
`metrics` listener. And then modify `/conf/workers/shared.yaml` to add
`enable_metrics: true`. Doesn't spark much joy.
Fix a couple type annotations in the `RootConfig`/`Config`. Discovered
while cribbing this code for another project.
It's really sucks that `mypy` type checking doesn't catch this. I assume
this is because we also have a `synapse/config/_base.pyi` that overrides
all of this. Still unclear to me why the `Iterable[str]` vs
`StrSequence` issue wasn't caught as that's what `ConfigError` expects.
Part of #9744
Removes all redundant `# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-` lines from files, as python 3 automatically reads source code as utf-8 now.

Wait George, why XOR? Why not just neq?
