Populate the room version from state events (#7070)

Fixes #7065 

This is basically the same as https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/6847 except it tries to populate events from `state_events` rather than `current_state_events`, since the latter might have been cleared from the state of some rooms too early, leaving them with a `NULL` room version.

+Repair a data-corruption issue which was introduced in Synapse 1.10, and fixed in Synapse 1.11, and which could cause `/sync` to return with 404 errors about missing events and unknown rooms.

+-- When we first added the room_version column to the rooms table, it was populated from
+-- the current_state_events table. However, there was an issue causing a background
+-- update to clean up the current_state_events table for rooms where the server is no
+-- longer participating, before that column could be populated. Therefore, some rooms had
+-- a NULL room_version.
+
+-- The rooms_version_column_2.sql.* delta files were introduced to make the populating
+-- synchronous instead of running it in a background update, which fixed this issue.
+-- However, all of the instances of Synapse installed or updated in the meantime got
+-- their rooms table corrupted with NULL room_versions.
+
+-- This query fishes out the room versions from the create event using the state_events
+-- table instead of the current_state_events one, as the former still have all of the
+-- create events.
+
+UPDATE rooms SET room_version=(
+    SELECT COALESCE(json::json->'content'->>'room_version','1')
+    FROM state_events se INNER JOIN event_json ej USING (event_id)
+    WHERE se.room_id=rooms.room_id AND se.type='m.room.create' AND se.state_key=''
+    LIMIT 1
+) WHERE rooms.room_version IS NULL;
+
+-- see also rooms_version_column_3.sql.sqlite which has a copy of the above query, using
+-- sqlite syntax for the json extraction.
