At least I want to support outputting the homeserver signing key from the database because I seriously doubt this is hard lol. It's generated upon creation of the database.

Will maybe try looking into seeing if we can change it too. Not sure how it will be done, maybe what Synapse does and reads it from a file with a check on the file permissions. Or a commandline argument to change it?

An unfinished branch is here if someone wants to pick it up: https://github.com/girlbossceo/conduwuit/tree/bad-attempt-at-extracting-homeserver-signing-key

This ended up being unfortunately a lot more complex than I thought. I would like to be able to extract the key into Synapse's homeserver signing key format, but it doesn't appear to be as simple as I thought (cryptography is hard) An unfinished branch is here if someone wants to pick it up: https://github.com/girlbossceo/conduwuit/tree/bad-attempt-at-extracting-homeserver-signing-key
