mirsal 5a203d70ba Add support for access token based authentication ...

* Extend the configuration format in order to allow access_token,
   user_id and device_id instead of username and password
 * Move the matrix login logic outside of login_and_sync for clarity
 * Add support for access token based session resuming instead of
   logging in every time (thus creating a new device each time the
   service starts up)
 * Delay the startup of feed reader loops until after the matrix module
   has had a chance to actually check authentication

This change is quite involved and there are a few caveats, namely an
intentional race condition between the feed reader loops and matrix
authentication, as well as significantly different behaviors depending
on which authentication scheme is being used: password based
authentication requires an API call while resuming a session using an
access token does not.
