HTTP APIs

[xmclark]

The Matrix client-server spec describes http endpoints. Let's implement some of those endpoints.

Below is a large list of endpoints for the homeserver. It is not the complete API, but it is a large piece of it. We can follow up with additional features in another epic. We may also choose to exclude some APIs to reduce scope.

We will need to get really familiar with this spec:
https://matrix.org/docs/spec/client_server/r0.4.0.html

Each endpoint should require at least one PR.
