Currently we rely on `current_state_events` to figure out what rooms a
user was in and their last membership event in there. However, if the
server leaves the room then the table may be cleaned up and that
information is lost. So lets add a table that separately holds that
information.
This fixes a weird bug where, if you were determined enough, you could end up with a rejected event forming part of the state at a backwards-extremity. Authing that backwards extrem would then lead to us trying to pull the rejected event from the db (with allow_rejected=False), which would fail with a 404.
When we request the state/auth_events to populate a backwards extremity (on
backfill or in the case of missing events in a transaction push), we should
check that the returned events are in the right room rather than blindly using
them in the room state or auth chain.
Given that _get_events_from_store_or_dest takes a room_id, it seems clear that
it should be sanity-checking the room_id of the requested events, so let's do
it there.
Make it return the state *after* the requested event, rather than the one
before it. This is a bit easier and requires fewer calls to
get_events_from_store_or_dest.

Sometimes the filtering function can return a pruned version of an event (on top of either the event itself or an empty list), if it thinks the user should be able to see that there's an event there but not the content of that event. Therefore, the previous logic of 'if filtered is empty then we can use the event we retrieved from the database' is flawed, and we should use the event returned by the filtering function.
