AppServices: Document client-server requests omitting user_id param #1296

Description

@anoadragon453

The majority of application services and Synapse itself all allow for the behavior of omitting the user_id parameter when calling the Client-Server API with an access_token. This assumes that the application service is acting as its main user, or what it specifies as the sender_localpart user in its registration config.

This behavior is currently not documented anywhere in the spec, and would be useful for homeservers implementing the AS API to know when they get these types of requests from application services :)
