Following a75952c, this is one more upgrade to the widget communication that I'd like to make within this release cycle. The motivating issue is element-hq/element-web#29429. Fundamentally, without a 'join' action, the only info Element Web can use to determine whether it's joined the call is whether a MatrixRTC membership exists. But membership state events can inaccurately represent the client's actual state (whether because delayed events aren't supported, or because the delayed event hasn't timed out yet), so I suggest we send a 'join' action here just as we do in the Element Web Jitsi wrapper (https://github.com/element-hq/element-web/blob/e9a3625bd6e9a64f216e3caeabca66f48b649332/src/vector/jitsi/index.ts#L503) to let Element Web tap directly into the widget's local state. (This will need additional Element Web changes, but is certainly backwards compatible.)

If this sounds good, I would backport this change to the
release-v0.7.2branch as well to simplify the rollout of the Element Web changes.
