Allow users to disconnect from an integration manager entirely in the same way that we support doing this for identity servers

This is tricky because of the 3 levels users can have integration managers at: Riot config, homeserver config, and account data. The button would need to store a flag to ignore the settings.

This is important for privacy, please prioritize.

We've spent several hours to try and figure out what this means and it's not as trivial as we want. Removing an integration manager means (to us):

• Hiding the integrations button in the room
• Hiding the sticker picker button (for UX, not because we have to - it's a widget)
• Avoiding the use of a whitelist for widget URLs, therefore exposing the integration manager wrapper in widgets
  • This may require design for a "show more info" button to expose the query string
• Hoping widgets are capable of auth, potentially adding more work for us later: Investigate why Scalar requires auth for things (and see if we can fix it) #11085

Where we store this flag is moderately unknown - account data?

I don't know the code base that well, but can't you just check if the host is not empty and accessible and based on this do all this things.

no, because there's 3 levels of integration manager configuration and none of which permit a "none" option. The disconnect button is additionally per-user, so we need to be able to detect that and that's difficult.

also: we've proposed matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#2315 to solve the disconnection problem.
