Ephemeral room versions #3240

Description

@erkinalp

Suggestion

Matrix has resolved moderated instant messaging over open federation(s) just fine. However, existing room versions 1 through 7 are all persistent rooms. To make Matrix one true communication medium and messaging protocol, we need ephemeral room versions too, alongside all the persistent room versions we have now. However, we will have to tackle with the moderation problem over federation in an ephemeral information exchange situation, which is more difficult as servers would not be able to ask for older state in ephemeral rooms.
