This is not supported by Ruma. The join_rule field, despite being defined as a pure string, can have associated data to it based on the join rule variant.
This means that custom and unknown enum variants might lose data when reserializing.
Let's just skip the serialization of custom join rules in the RoomInfo, the concrete value is still available in the state store, it's just not kept at hand in the RoomInfo.
This closes #5883 and #2949.
I have checked, the other enums that can encounter custom variants, i.e.
HistoryVisibiltyare not problematic as they have a workingSerializeimplementation for all variants, even the custom one.
