+-- Add a table that keeps track of when we failed to pull an event over
+-- federation (via /backfill, `/event`, `/get_missing_events`, etc). This allows
+-- us to be more intelligent when we decide to retry (we don't need to fail over
+-- and over) and we can process that event in the background so we don't block
+-- on it each time.
