Add delete room admin endpoint (#7613)
The Delete Room admin API allows server admins to remove rooms from server
and block these rooms.
`DELETE /_synapse/admin/v1/rooms/<room_id>`
It is a combination and improvement of "[Shutdown room](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/admin_api/shutdown_room.md)" and "[Purge room](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/admin_api/purge_room.md)" API.

Fixes: #6425 

It also fixes a bug in [synapse/storage/data_stores/main/room.py](synapse/storage/data_stores/main/room.py) in ` get_room_with_stats`.
It should return `None` if the room is unknown. But it returns an `IndexError`.

Purge room API
==============
This API will remove all trace of a room from your database.
All local users must have left the room before it can be removed.
See also: [Delete Room API](rooms.md#delete-room-api)
The API is:
```
POST /_synapse/admin/v1/purge_room
{
"room_id": "!room:id"
}
```
You must authenticate using the access token of an admin user.
