MSC2077 - Rooms V6

This MSC proposes creating a new room version named v5, which will enforce the signing key valid_until_ts timestamps proposed in MSC2076.

Proposal

The new room version is called "5". The only difference between v5 and v4 is that v5 rooms enforce the valid_until_ts timestamp on signing keys as proposed in MSC2076.

It is not yet proposed that servers change the default room version used when creating new rooms, and it is not yet proposed that servers recommend upgrading existing rooms to v5.

Notes

See also MSC2002, which proposed room v4 but also mentioned that a v5 was anticipated and gave some context for this change.
