matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#1767 covers this in a whole lot more detail, but the tldr is extensible events (v2) is gated by a room version: any old events sent in that room version are not supposed to be rendered, and we're supposed to be sending the new extensible event types.
This PR implements the new event parsing interface from the events-sdk (normally a breaking change, but not here because unstable), and converts
m.room.messageevents to their extensible versions in room versions where it matters, for the event types we know we can support with the events-sdk.This is very much a work in progress and a bit of a hack - the intention is to demonstrate the functionality and hopefully improve on it later.
This change is marked as an internal change (Task), so will not be included in the changelog.
