Remove `worker_replication_*` settings (#15491)

* Add master to the instance_map as part of Complement, have ReplicationEndpoint look at instance_map for master.

* Fix typo in drive by.

* Remove unnecessary worker_replication_* bits from unit tests and add master to instance_map(hopefully in the right place)

* Several updates:

1. Switch from master to main for naming the main process in the instance_map. Add useful constants for easier adjustment of names in the future.
2. Add backwards compatibility for worker_replication_* to allow time to transition to new style. Make sure to prioritize declaring main directly on the instance_map.
3. Clean up old comments/commented out code.
4. Adjust unit tests to match with new code.
5. Adjust Complement setup infrastructure to only add main to the instance_map if workers are used and remove now unused options from the worker.yaml template.

* Initial Docs upload

* Changelog

* Missed some commented out code that can go now

* Remove TODO comment that no longer holds true.

* Fix links in docs

* More docs

* Remove debug logging

* Apply suggestions from code review

 ### `instance_map`
 
 When using workers this should be a map from [`worker_name`](#worker_name) to the
-HTTP replication listener of the worker, if configured.

 Each worker declared under [`stream_writers`](../../workers.md#stream-writers) needs
 a HTTP replication listener, and that listener should be included in the `instance_map`.

+The main process also needs an entry on the `instance_map`, and it should be listed under
