Description

### Description

When I start Element without an internet connection, but then connect to the internet later, the avatars of all of my rooms and everybody in them are gradually loaded in. However, my own profile in the top left corner is never updated:

![profile](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/48614497/108850799-bf0ea000-75b1-11eb-9106-0a0fa6e9980f.png)

### Steps to reproduce

- Start Element without an internet connection
- Connect to the internet

The user's profile picture and display name in the top left corner are not loaded in, and instead the user's MXID continues to be shown.
