f99dcd611f Pass proper UID/GID to Synapse
Fixes a regression caused by a5ee39266c.

If the user id and group id were different than 991:991
(which used to be a hardcoded default for us long ago),
there was a mismatch between what Synapse was trying to use (991:991)
and what it was actually started with (in `--user=..`). It was then
trying to change ownership, which was failing.

This was mostly affecting newer installations which were not using the
991:991 defaults we had long ago (since a1c5a197a9).

a5ee39266c Go through start.py when launching Synapse
This allows us to benefit from helpful things it does for us,
like enabling jemalloc: https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/8553

We weren't going through `start.py` before, because it was causing some
conflict with our `docker run --user=...` stuff, but it doesn't seem
to be a problem anymore.

Having done this, we won't need to do things like
https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/pull/941
anymore.

70796703d3 Run Synapse workers in their own containers
This switches the `docker exec` method of spawning
Synapse workers inside the `matrix-synapse` container with
dedicated containers for each worker.

We also have dedicated systemd services for each worker,
so this are now:
- more consistent with everything else (we don't use systemd
instantiated services anywhere)
- we don't need the "parse systemd instance name into worker name +
port" part
- we don't need to keep track of PIDs manually
- we don't need jq (less depenendencies)
- workers dying would be restarted by systemd correctly, like any other
service
- `docker ps` shows each worker separately and we can observe resource
usage
