Porting an existing module that uses the old interface

In order to port a module that uses Synapse's old module interface, its author needs to:

ensure the module's callbacks are all asynchronous.
register their callbacks using one or more of the register_[...]_callbacks methods +from the ModuleApi class in the module's __init__ method (see this section +for more info).

Additionally, if the module is packaged with an additional web resource, the module +should register this resource in its __init__ method using the register_web_resource +method from the ModuleApi class (see this section for +more info).

There is no longer a get_db_schema_files callback provided for password auth provider modules. Any +changes to the database should now be made by the module using the module API class.

The module's author should also update any example in the module's configuration to only +use the new modules section in Synapse's configuration file (see this section +for more info).
