Fix handling of redacted events from federation

If we receive an event that doesn't pass their content hash check (e.g.
due to already being redacted) then we hit a bug which causes an
exception to be raised, which then promplty stops the event (and
request) from being processed.

This effects all sorts of federation APIs, including joining rooms with
a redacted state event.
