This proposal implements the reserved "knock" membership type for the `m.room.member` state event.
This state event indicates that a user knocks a room, that is asking for permission to join. It
contains an optional "reason" parameter to specify the reason you want to join. Like other
memtership types the parameters "displayname" and "avatar_url" are optional. This membership can

client in some way (e.g. clicking on a "show reason" button), as else this would basically allow
outsiders to send messages into the room. Clients can optionally add a way for users of a room to

The default power level for "knock" is 0. If a user has a too low power level to knock they aren't
allowed to do this. As power levels can be set for users not currently in the room this can be used

## Membership changes
Once someone has sent the `knock` membership into the room a change to the following memberships is
possible:
- `invite`: The knock was accepted by someone inside the room and they are inviting the knocker into
the room.
- `leave`: Similar to how kicks are handled, the knock was rejected.
## Client-Server API
Two new endpoints are introduced in the client-server API (similarly to join):
`POST /_matrix/client/r0/rooms/{roomId}/knock` and `POST /_matrix/client/r0/knock/{roomIdOrAlias}`.
