Remove experimental MSC2716 implementation to incrementally import history into existing rooms (#15748)

Context for why we're removing the implementation:

 - https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/2716#issuecomment-1487441010
 - https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/2716#issuecomment-1504262734

Anyone wanting to continue MSC2716, should also address these leftover tasks: https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10737

Closes https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/10737 in the fact that it is not longer necessary to track those things.
