Media didn't work before this patch, likely because this feature is broken:
> N.B. Discord now requires signed expiring download links, which means this solution no longer works. In the future, a more dynamic solution may be implemented where requests go to the bridge and the bridge and the bridge refetches the message if necessary.

Moreover, most users more likely don't want this behavior and would
prefer to keep a complete mirror of the media on Matrix, instead of
going through two 3rd party servers to fetch the media on demand.
The default config for the bridge
(https://github.com/mautrix/discord/blob/main/example-config.yaml)
actually does not enable it.
It seems like 4ed522e8fe
(https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/pull/3133)
lied to us as to what upstream does. Poor PR review lead to this
anti-feature making it into the playbook.
This is an attempt at optimizing service startup.
The effect is most pronounced when many services are restarted one by one.
The systemd service manager role sometimes does this - for example when `just install-service synapse` runs.
In such cases, a 5-second delay for each Synapse worker service
(or other bridge/bot service that waits on the homeserver) quickly adds up to a lot.
When services are all stopped fully and then started, the effect is not so pronounced, because
`matrix-synapse.service` starts first and pulls all worker services (defined as `Wants=` for it).
Later on, when the systemd service manager role "starts" these worker services, they're started already.
Even if they had a 5-second wait each, it would have happened in parallel.
