Description

I'm trying to join a public channel on matrix.org server using my sefhosted server running dendrite. Joining fails with the following error:

`level=warning msg="Failed to request keys from fetcher" context=missing error="gomatrixserverlib: unable to lookup server keys: contents=[] msg=Failed to POST JSON (hostname \"matrix.org\" path \"/_matrix/key/v2/query\"): code=520 wrapped=" fetcher="perspective server matrix.org`

Research direction

Start from the reported key lookup failure for the `/_matrix/key/v2/query` request to matrix.org and trace how the fetcher handles the response. Reproduce the failure if possible, then identify the expected behavior and verify the fix with the relevant tests, though no specific files or tests are named in the issue.
