These must now make a dispatch to RoomViewStore instead of calling `viewRoom` directly on MatrixChat. This will call both `viewRoom` of MatrixChat _and_ the logic in RVS so there is some redundancy here. It'd be best to move as much as possible of viewRoom out to the RVS itself.
But for now, this fixes a bug that occures when leaving (the viewed room would not change).
This changes the default behaviour of displaying the room directory to instead displaying the default homepage. If specified, the config "welcomePageUrl" can be used to override the default '/home.html'.
This allows for a truely flux-y way of storing the currently viewed room, making some callbacks (like onRoomIdResolved) redundant and making sure that the currently viewed room (ID) is only stored in one place as opposed to the previous many places.
This was required for the `join_room` action which can be dispatched to join the currently viewed room.
Another change was to introduce `LifeCycleStore` which is a start at encorporating state related to the lifecycle of the app into a flux store. Currently it only contains an action which will be dispatched when the sync state has become PREPARED. This was necessary to do a deferred dispatch of `join_room` following the registration of a PWLU (PassWord-Less User).
The following actions are introduced:
- RoomViewStore:
- `view_room`: dispatch to change the currently viewed room ID
- `join_room`: dispatch to join the currently viewed room
- LifecycleStore:
- `do_after_sync_prepared`: dispatch to store an action which will be dispatched when `sync_state` is dispatched with `state = 'PREPARED'`
- MatrixChat:
- `sync_state`: dispatched when the sync state changes. Ideally there'd be a SyncStateStore that emitted an `update` upon receiving this, but for now the `LifecycleStore` will listen for `sync_state` directly.
This will shift focus to the welcome user DM.
We probably don't want to do this for teams, but I shall leave that for another PR that fixes teams WRT to new-guest-access.

This wraps session-related state into a basic flux store. The localStorage item 'mx_pass' is the only thing managed by this store for now but it could easily be extended to track other items (like the teamToken which is passed around through props a lot)
- Replaces SetDisplayNameDialog with SetMxIdDialog. This new dialog will use InteractiveAuth to authenticate a user with their chosen mxid.
De-scoped:
- style tweaks for the InteractiveAuth in the dialog (capcha) and error message.
- checking for mxid availability
This was an issue because guests do not log in with a teamToken, it is implicitly set by MatrixChat when it mounts. The fix is to view_home_page when a login occurs and MatrixChat has this._teamToken set.
- Create a promise that will serve as a lock to be blocked on by things that need to wait for the first sync before accessing state.
- Use this promise to block `view_room` calls until a sync has occured instead of just dropping them silently if the sync hasn't happened yet.
- Store the current room ID in a localStorage item `mx_last_room_id` when `view_room` fires. This persists the last viewed room ID so that it can be restored on refresh, browser quit. This replaces the previous logic which set the room following a sync based on the most recent unread room.
MatrixChat was trying to display an error if the session failed to
restore, but it was never actually being shown because it was just
set as a member variable and therefore never actually caused
a re-render for the error to be displayed. Almost all errors are
caught by _restoreFromLocalStorage which displays the fancy dialog
if your session can't be restored, so I'm not convinced this ever
even tried to do anything anyway. Remove it.

```
JS 2.1.1 (Linux 0.0.0) joining a room over federation should not get stuck at a spinner FAILED
Did not find exactly one match (found: 0) for componentType:function (props, context, updater) {
```
actually meant that the room directory wasn't displayed - probably because the dispatch `view_room_directory` ended up on another tick of the event loop, meaning that the directory wasn't displayedi. The fix attempted in ths commit is to use `this._setPage` instead to view the directory. This uses `setState` to set the screen to the directory, so I'm not entirely convinced this will solve the problem (as `setState` may also end up doing things on another tick.
and
```
JS 2.1.1 (Linux 0.0.0) loading: MatrixClient rehydrated from stored credentials: shows a room view if we followed a room link FAILED
MatrixChat still not ready after 5 tries
awaitRoomView@/home/travis/build/vector-im/riot-web/test/all-tests.js:201363:90
```
was happening probably because in the handler for the `sync` event in `MatrixChat` (around line 840), there was one case in which the `ready` state may not be true (causing all 5 attempts to fail), and this case relied on `starting_room_alias_payload`. This `starting_room_alias_payload` is now redundant because of `initialScreenAfterLogin`, which was added recently.
To prevent the login screen from flashing when refreshing the app, use some state to indicate that a login is in progress, and OR that with the existing `loading` boolean to show the `<Spinner>` instead of the default `<Login>`.
This might be too invasive, and a default spinner may be better.
_onLoadCompleted happens straight away because Lifecycle finishes loading the session instantly when registration parameters (client_secret etc.) are set.
