parentUpdate MSC3958 support to interact with intentional mentions. (#15992) (diff)
downloadsynapse-4f5bccbbba13ba10412497cb92a1460535cf7a25.tar.xz
Add forward-compatibility for the redacts property (MSC2174). (#16013)
The location of the redacts field changes in room version 11. Ensure
it is copied to the *new* location for *old* room versions for
forwards-compatibility with clients.

Note that copying it to the *old* location for the *new* room version
was previously handled.
