Servers MUST apply certain validation to ensure they don't accidentally sign non-invite
events from a malicious server. The `M_MISSING_PARAM` error code is used to indicate one
or more of the following:
* The invite event fails a [signature check](/server-server-api/#validating-hashes-and-signatures-on-received-events).
* The event type is not `m.room.member`.
* The `membership` field inside the event content is not `invite`.
* The event sender is not a user ID on the origin server.
* The `state_key` is not a user ID on the receiving server.
The `M_MISSING_PARAM` error code is also used to indicate one or more of the following
problems in the `invite_room_state` field:
* The `m.room.create` event is missing from `invite_room_state`.
* One or more entries in `invite_room_state` are not formatted according
to the room's version.
* One or more events fails a [signature check](/server-server-api/#validating-hashes-and-signatures-on-received-events).
* One or more events does not reside in the same room as the invite.
Note: Some room versions may require calculating the room ID for an
event rather than relying on the presence of `room_id`.
Servers MAY apply the `invite_room_state` validation to room versions 1 through 11,
and SHOULD apply the validation to all other room versions.
