Unix Sockets for HTTP Replication (#15708)
Unix socket support for `federation` and `client` Listeners has existed now for a little while(since [1.81.0](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/15353)), but there was one last hold out before it could be complete: HTTP Replication communication. This should finish it up. The Listeners would have always worked, but would have had no way to be talked to/at.
