Description

The Rust SDK on Android does not provide any API to access State Events or AccountData, unlike other Matrix SDKs.
Methods such as getStateEvent, stateEvent, or any AccountData access are not available.
This currently limits client-side data synchronization.
Please consider adding these APIs.

Research direction

Compare the available interfaces with the State Events and AccountData access described in the issue, then define the required API scope and verify that both categories can be accessed by Android clients.
