Add MSC3030 experimental client and federation API endpoints to get the closest event to a given timestamp (#9445)
MSC3030: https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/3030

Client API endpoint. This will also go and fetch from the federation API endpoint if unable to find an event locally or we found an extremity with possibly a closer event we don't know about.
```
GET /_matrix/client/unstable/org.matrix.msc3030/rooms/<roomID>/timestamp_to_event?ts=<timestamp>&dir=<direction>
{
    "event_id": ...
    "origin_server_ts": ...
}
```

Federation API endpoint:
```
GET /_matrix/federation/unstable/org.matrix.msc3030/timestamp_to_event/<roomID>?ts=<timestamp>&dir=<direction>
{
    "event_id": ...
    "origin_server_ts": ...
}
```
