Improve the reliability of auto-joining remote rooms (#10237)
If a room is remote and we don't have a user in it, always try to join it. It might fail if the room is invite-only, but we don't have a user to invite with, so at this point it's the best we can do.

Fixes #10233 (at least to some extent)
