If the default notary server is used, then warn on start up. #6088

@neilisfragile

Description

@neilisfragile

Currently it is necessary for a homeserver to rely on a notary server to maintain a list of server keys across the federation.

Notary servers need to be stable and long lived, so the current default of 'matrix.org' is a good choice for most admins. However it is not immediately obvious to an admin that their server defaults in this way, and some admins will prefer to require another server be the notary.

Synapse should warn admins on start up that the notary is matrix.org unless perspectives or trusted_key_serversis not explicitly set in homeserver.yml
