Description

### Your use case

#### What would you like to do?

As a widget creator I want to be able to receive updates when a user changes the theme or language of the element client.

#### Why would you like to do it?

When the theme or language of element changes the widget should change accordingly.

#### How would you like to achieve it?

[MSC2873](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/blob/travis/msc/widget-client-identification/proposals/2873-identifying-clients-in-widgets.md) already specifies actions for `theme_change` and `language_change` but these are not implemented yet.
