Ensure that the list of servers in a partial state room always contains
the server we joined off.

Also refactor get_partial_state_servers_at_join to return None when
the given room is no longer partial stated, to explicitly indicate when
the room has partial state. Otherwise it's not clear whether an empty
list means that the room has full state, or the room is partial stated,
but the server we joined off told us that there are no servers in the
room.

...and hence is never empty for a partial state room. This couldn't
happen previously because we check if the list is falsy, but let's make
it more explicit and intentional.

I initially thought there was a bug here, where we would block on the full state of the room (below) when the server we joined off returned an empty list of servers in the room. But while writing this PR to fix the bug, I discovered that we validate that the list is truthy and so the bug can't happen.

if destination not in servers_in_room:
# `servers_in_room` is supposed to be a complete list.
# Fix things up if the remote homeserver is badly behaved.
servers_in_room = [destination] + servers_in_room

Should we be making this a set? What if the remote server returns the same thing for servers_in_room 100 times?

Is it possible for destination to no longer be in the room at this point? (I'm guessing no because we just got a response from it?)

That's a good question. We'll fail to insert the list into the database, because there's a unique constraint. And the join will fail.

There's nothing stopping destination from leaving the room immediately after our join really.
If destination leaves the room, we'll try syncing state from other servers in the list.

Representing the server list as a set sounds like a good idea, so I did it in 163c68c.

I'd recommend moving this above the destination check to have all the error checking up-front.

Should this be an error? Usually assertions are used for programming errors, but this seem to be input validation?

The assert can't (shouldn't?) ever be hit unless we've introduced a bug. This method is only run when we're about to finish syncing state. At that point the room is still partial stated, which implies we have a list of servers in it.

Is this fixing a bug? A potential bug? Or just clean-up?

It's somewhere in between fixing a potential bug and a clean up. Probably closer to a clean up.
