Text for 405 errors is a lie #6894
Description
When you send a GET request to an endpoint that only supports POST, or vice versa, synapse sends back an error that looks like:
Method Not Allowed
Your browser approached me (at /_matrix/saml2/authn_response) with the method "GET". I only allow the method HEAD here.
We hardly support HEAD anywhere, and it doesn't say anything about POST.
(This actually only happens on a subset of endpoints, such as the media repo ones. For others we give back a 400, which I think is fine).
