Description

Currently we do not check `m.call.member` state event keys allowing users to have multiple events for one device.

This is not to spec.
We should check the key when parsing the state event here: https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-js-sdk/blob/8ebf04ae94e3f97c8326b7be5bffc56e47655c0a/src/matrixrtc/CallMembership.ts#L45-L63

Research direction

Start at src/matrixrtc/CallMembership.ts lines 45-63, where m.call.member state events are parsed, and review the linked pull-request discussion for the key requirements. The work is done when parsing checks the state event key so multiple events cannot represent one device and the behavior matches the spec.
