Mateusz Mandera 3b4f8cc85b saml: Add setting to skip the "continue to registration" page.

Mateusz Mandera c54b48452d saml: Support syncing custom profile fields with SAML attributes.
Fixes #17277.

The main limitation of this implementation is that the sync happens if
the user authing already exists. This means that a new user going
through the sign up flow will not have their custom fields synced upon
finishing it. The fields will get synced on their consecutive log in via
SAML in the future. This can be addressed in the future by moving the
syncing code further down the codepaths to login_or_register_remote_user
and plumbing the data through to the user creation process.

We detail that limitation in the documentation.

Alex Vandiver 4c88da8ed9 scripts: Tool to find the diff to an original settings.py prod template.
This hits the unauthenticated Github API to get the list of tags,

tool can only be run 60 times per hour before it starts to exit with
errors, but that seems like a reasonable limit for the moment.

Alex Vandiver 476524c0c1 scripts: Add a script to stop the server.
Using `supervisorctl stop all` to stop the server is not terribly
discoverable, and may stop services which are not part of Zulip
proper.

Add an explicit tool which only stops the relevant services.  It also
more carefully controls the order in which services are stopped to
minimize lost requests, and maximally quiesce the server.

Locations which may be stopping _older_ versions of Zulip (without
this script) are left with using `supervisorctl stop all`.

Strifel 209c89be10 ldap: Add option to limit user access to certain realms.

This is done by configuring an attribute mapping of "org_membership"
to an ldap attribute that will contain the list of subdomains the ldap
user is allowed to access. This is analogous to how it's done in SAML.

ryanreh99 dfa7ce5637 uploads: Support non-AWS S3-compatible server.
Boto3 does not allow setting the endpoint url from
the config file. Thus we create a django setting
variable (`S3_ENDPOINT_URL`) which is passed to
service clients and resources of `boto3.Session`.

We also update the uploads-backend documentation
and remove the config environment variable as now
AWS supports the SIGv4 signature format by default.

Alex Vandiver 7a1002af96 docs: Add explicit steps to verify FTS indexes after upgrading to 3.0.
The OS upgrade paths which go through 2.1 do not call
`upgrade-zulip-stage-2` with `--audit-fts-indexes` because that flag
was added in 3.0.

Add an explicit step to do this audit after the 3.0 upgrade.  Stating
it as another command to run, rather than attempting to tell them
to add it to the `upgrade-zulip` call that we're linking to seems
easiest, since that does not dictate if they should upgrade to a
release or from the tip of git.

We do not include a step describing this for the Trusty -> Xenial
upgrade, because the last step already chains into Xenial -> Bionic,
which itself describes auditing the indexes.
