Rate limiting changes (#2519)
* Rate limiting changes This makes the following changes: * For logged in users, the rate limiting now applies to the device session rather than the remote IP address; * For non-logged in users, the rate limiting continues to apply to remote address as it does today; * It is now possible to add user IDs to the `exempt_user_ids` option under `rate_limiting` to exclude bots from rate limiting; * Admin and appservice users are now exempt from rate limiting by default. * Fix build with media API
