Add whoami-based sync worker routing for user-level sticky sessions
This adds a new routing mechanism for sync workers that resolves access tokens to usernames via Synapse's whoami endpoint, enabling true user-level sticky routing regardless of which device or token is used. Previously, sticky routing relied on parsing the username from native Synapse tokens (`syt_<base64 username>_...`), which only works with native Synapse auth and provides device-level stickiness at best. This new approach works with any auth system (native Synapse, MAS, etc.) because Synapse handles token validation internally. Implementation uses nginx's auth_request module with an njs script because: - The whoami lookup requires an async HTTP subrequest (ngx.fetch) - js_set handlers must return synchronously and don't support async operations - auth_request allows the async lookup to complete, then captures the result via response headers into nginx variables The njs script: - Extracts access tokens from Authorization header or query parameter - Calls Synapse's whoami endpoint to resolve token -> username - Caches results in a shared memory zone to minimize latency - Returns the username via a `X-User-Identifier` header The username is then used by nginx's upstream hash directive for consistent worker selection. This leverages nginx's built-in health checking and failover.
