Show full details of one room

Returns the room's name, topic, avatar, version, encryption algorithm, join rules, member counts, and whether it has been tombstoned (closed and replaced). Every room has a unique room ID that starts with an exclamation mark and comes from the rooms list endpoint. Check this before deciding to purge or block a room. Member-level details live on the /members endpoint.
