This allows a user to enable the relaybot by setting a variable in
`vars.yml` in the same way that the mautrix signal relaybot is
configured.

* Correct default values for mautrix whatsapp relaybot variables

* Add documentation for using the relaybot with mautrix whatsapp

* Adjust variable names to better reflect what they do

* Set default variables properly and use to_json in template

Whatsapp multidevice beta is required, now it is enough if Whatsapp is connected to the Internet every 2 weeks.
The relay bot functionality is off by default. If you would like to enable the relay bot, add the following to your `vars.yml` file:
```yaml
matrix_mautrix_whatsapp_bridge_relay_enabled: true
```
By default, only admins are allowed to set themselves as relay users. To allow anyone on your homeserver to set themselves as relay users add this to your `vars.yml` file:
```yaml
matrix_mautrix_whatsapp_bridge_relay_admin_only: false
```
If you want to activate the relay bot in a room, use `!whatsapp set-relay`.
Use `!whatsapp unset-relay` to deactivate.

This requires a server with MSC2716 support, which is currently an experimental feature in synapse.
Note that as of Synapse 1.46, there are still some bugs with the implementation, especially if using event persistence workers.
