Protect rooms from getting lost due to complex transitions

Browse source 
Fixes https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/14378

Rooms transitioning between multiple states are often at risk of going missing due to the sticky room handling. We now protect that transition by bluntly ensuring the room can't go missing, and by always ensuring we have an updated reference to the room.
