Description
### Steps to reproduce
1. Invite a user on EX to a room from EW
2. EW shares the keys to them they need to decrypt the history
3. EX promptly ignores those keys with errors like:
`2023-10-01T23:58:41.991407Z WARN matrix_sdk_crypto::gossiping::machine: Received a forwarded room key that we didn't request sender_key="curve25519:dDzGIsdDzjt2uWgLDg0U05v2s0NAdjiqYpYjryPa7To" room_id="!kCCQTCfnABLKGGvQjo:matrix.org" session_id="gPbOMSzHA67qrteCF3gi3/6VfWgcqSLgpF+N9aFZKqU" sender_key="curve25519:dDzGIsdDzjt2uWgLDg0U05v2s0NAdjiqYpYjryPa7To" algorithm="m.megolm.v1.aes-sha2" | crates/matrix-sdk-crypto/src/gossiping/machine.rs:978 | spans: root > sync_stream{conn_id="encryption" with_e2ee=true} > sync_once{pos="141"} > handle_response > preprocess_to_device_events > receive_sync_changes > receive_to_device_event{sender="@matthew:matrix.org" event_type="m.room.encrypted" message_id="98b4e05a-9cc4-440e-96d5-5c99a2fe1d67"} > handle_decrypted_to_device_event{sender_key="curve25519:dDzGIsdDzjt2uWgLDg0U05v2s0NAdjiqYpYjryPa7To" event_type="m.forwarded_room_key"}`
### Outcome
#### What did you expect?
Users should be able to read history when invited to a room.
#### What happened instead?
Undecryptable history, UISIs everywhere.
N.B. this is not the same as https://github.com/vector-im/element-x-ios/issues/1496 - where EX fails to send keys; here the problem is EX ignoring keys.
