syn2mas reads Synapse's homeserver.yaml and reuses the database
connection details from there.
When Synapse is configured to reach the integrated Postgres over a UNIX socket,
the temporary syn2mas container was given the config file but not the socket mount,
so migrations could fail even though Synapse itself was configured correctly.
Wire the Synapse socket settings into MAS via playbook vars and mount
the same socket path into the syn2mas container, so migrations work in
socket-based deployments without coupling the MAS role directly to
Synapse role variables.
Now that UID and GID are not specified by default, it is necessary for the playbook to specify them. MASH playbook has already taken care of them on 9707a4786b/templates/group_vars_mash_servers (L4794-L4795).

The companion role was tightly coupled to Synapse through shared tags, worker routing, and lifecycle ordering. Keeping them separate added coordination overhead without practical benefits, especially for parallelized execution.
This merges the role into matrix-synapse while keeping companion logic organized under dedicated reverse_proxy_companion task/template subdirectories.
Compatibility is preserved:
- matrix_synapse_reverse_proxy_companion_* variable names remain unchanged
- install/setup companion-specific tags remain available
Cross-role/global wiring is now in group_vars (matrix-synapse section), while role defaults provide sensible standalone defaults and self-wiring for Synapse-owned values.
Only queue matrix-goofys.service for restart when Synapse is enabled. Goofys is installed from the Synapse role, so non-Synapse homeserver configurations should not try to restart this unit. This mirrors the fix for issue https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/issues/4959.
Only queue matrix-synapse-s3-storage-provider-migrate.timer for restart when Synapse is actually enabled. This prevents setup/install failures when a Synapse-only extension flag is set while using another homeserver implementation, as reported in https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/issues/4959.
The startup issue came from a timing dependency around coturn TLS certs:
- `matrix-coturn.service` depends on
`matrix-traefik-certs-dumper-wait-for-domain@<matrix-fqdn>.service`
- That waiter succeeds only after Traefik has obtained and dumped a cert for
the Matrix hostname (typically driven by homeserver labels/routes becoming
active)
- If coturn is started too early, it can block/fail waiting for cert files
that are not yet present
Historically, coturn priority was mode-dependent:
- `one-by-one`: coturn at 1500 (delayed after homeserver)
- other modes: coturn at 900 (before homeserver)
This could still trigger undesirable startup ordering and confusing behavior
in non-`one-by-one` modes, especially during initial bootstrap/restart flows
where cert availability lags service startup.
This change makes ordering explicit and consistent:
1. Introduce `matrix_homeserver_systemd_service_manager_priority` (default 1000)
in `roles/custom/matrix-base/defaults/main.yml`.
2. Use that variable for the homeserver service entry in
`group_vars/matrix_servers`.
3. Set coturn priority relative to homeserver priority in all modes:
`matrix_homeserver_systemd_service_manager_priority + 500`.
4. Update inline documentation comments in `group_vars/matrix_servers` to
match the new behavior and rationale.
Result:
- Homeserver/coturn ordering is deterministic and mode-agnostic.
- Coturn is intentionally started later than the homeserver by default,
reducing first-start certificate wait/fail races.
- Priority intent is now centralized and configurable via a dedicated
homeserver priority variable.
- Coturn may still be stated earlier, because the homeserver typically
has a `Wants` "dependency" on it, but that's alright
These three roles have multiple variable prefixes each:
- kakaotalk: matrix_appservice_kakaotalk + matrix_appservice_kakaotalk_node
- telegram: matrix_mautrix_telegram + matrix_mautrix_telegram_lottieconverter
- synapse: matrix_synapse + matrix_synapse_customized + matrix_synapse_rust_synapse_compress_state
For each: renamed _docker_image* to _container_image* (and _docker_src*,
_docker_repo* where applicable), added deprecation entries in
validate_config.yml, updated group_vars references, and moved
deprecation tasks to the front of validate_config.yml.

Add matrix_continuwuity_version with container_image_tag inheriting from it.
Rename all _docker_image* variables to _container_image* with deprecation notices.

Add change-tracking and restart_necessary computation for:
- matrix-authentication-service (custom role in this repo)
- container-socket-proxy, traefik-certs-dumper, postgres, exim-relay,
cinny, livekit-server (external roles, bumped in requirements.yml)
Wire all 7 services in group_vars to use their _restart_necessary variable
instead of hardcoded true.

Track config/image/systemd changes via register: directives and compute
a _restart_necessary variable for each service role, allowing the
systemd_service_manager to skip unnecessary restarts during install-* runs.
Covers 22 service roles: alertmanager-receiver, appservice-draupnir-for-all,
bridge-mautrix-wsproxy (+ syncproxy), cactus-comments, cactus-comments-client,
corporal, element-admin, ldap-registration-proxy, livekit-jwt-service, matrixto,
pantalaimon, prometheus-nginxlog-exporter, rageshake, registration, static-files,
sygnal, synapse-admin, synapse-auto-compressor, synapse-reverse-proxy-companion,
synapse-usage-exporter, and user-verification-service.
