Research direction

Start by reading the linked Matrix spec for ringing acknowledgements and locating Element X Android's existing call-ringing flow. Determine where the current feedback ring is produced and define done as reporting the callee's actual ringing state according to the spec, with coverage for the acknowledgement behavior.
