idk 6cd1285ca0 Adds support for listening on and connecting to I2P and Onion services securely (#3293 ) This PR adds 2 `dendrite-demo` main's, each designed expressly to serve a Hidden Service/Overlay network. The first, `dendrite-demo-i2p` add self-configuration for use of dendrite as an I2P hidden service(eepsite) and to connect to I2P services(federate) as an I2P client. It further disables the `dendrite` server from communicating with non-anonymous servers by federation(because I2P does not canonically have the ability to exit, we rely on donors for exit traffic), and enables the use of self-signed TLS certificates([because I2P services are self-authenticating but TLS is still required for other aspects of the system to work reliably](https://tor.stackexchange.com/questions/13887/registering-onion-with-certificate-authority)). This demo turns the system into an "pseudonymous" homeserver which people can connect to using an I2P-enabled Matrix client(I like `cinny` and it's what I tested with). The second, `dendrite-demo-tor` adds self-configuration for the use of dendrite as an Onion service and to connect to other onion services and non-anonymous web sites using Tor to obfuscate it's physical location and providing, optionally, pseudonymity. It also enables the use of self-signed TLS certificates, for the same reason as with I2P, because onion services aren't typically eligible for TLS certificates. It has also been tested with `cinny`. These services are both pseudonymous like myself, not anonymous. I will be meeting members of the element team at the CCC assembly shortly to discuss contributing under my pseudonym.

Adds support for listening on and connecting to I2P and Onion services securely (#3293 )

This PR adds 2 `dendrite-demo` main's, each designed expressly to serve
a Hidden Service/Overlay network.

The first, `dendrite-demo-i2p` add self-configuration for use of
dendrite as an I2P hidden service(eepsite) and to connect to I2P
services(federate) as an I2P client. It further disables the `dendrite`
server from communicating with non-anonymous servers by
federation(because I2P does not canonically have the ability to exit, we
rely on donors for exit traffic), and enables the use of self-signed TLS
certificates([because I2P services are self-authenticating but TLS is
still required for other aspects of the system to work
reliably](https://tor.stackexchange.com/questions/13887/registering-onion-with-certificate-authority)).
This demo turns the system into an "pseudonymous" homeserver which
people can connect to using an I2P-enabled Matrix client(I like `cinny`
and it's what I tested with).

The second, `dendrite-demo-tor` adds self-configuration for the use of
dendrite as an Onion service and to connect to other onion services and
non-anonymous web sites using Tor to obfuscate it's physical location
and providing, optionally, pseudonymity. It also enables the use of
self-signed TLS certificates, for the same reason as with I2P, because
onion services aren't typically eligible for TLS certificates. It has
also been tested with `cinny`.

These services are both pseudonymous like myself, not anonymous. I will
be meeting members of the element team at the CCC assembly shortly to
discuss contributing under my pseudonym.

As none of the other `dendrite-demo` have unit tests I did not add them
to these checkins.

* [*] I have added Go unit tests or [Complement integration
tests](https://github.com/matrix-org/complement) for this PR _or_ I have
justified why this PR doesn't need tests
