Travis Ralston 45c68e323a Add general clarity to the /createRoom endpoint
This commit does a number of things:
* Minor formatting/alignment changes
* Document the room_alias response key. This could be deprecated now, or forfeited, if needed.
* Remove the guest_can_join parameter - it is not actually supported
* Document the previously undocumented power_level_content_override parameter
* Clarify that the room_id is required on the response
* More clearly spell out which events are created as part of the request
* Clarify how the room alias becomes the canonical alias
* Clarify how the `visibility` may be used to determine a default preset to apply
* Document the `m.federate` creation content parameter, adding an option for the homeserver to define a default value

References:
* Preset being inferred by the visibility: cd32c19a60/synapse/handlers/room.py (L172-L177)
