Description

When I choose nheko as a client, matrix.to will already offer links in the form:
`matrix:r/lobby%3Asspaeth.de?action=join&via=sspaeth.de` which will work in gomuks, EXA, and all other clients that implement a propose matrix: URL scheme.

This is the matrix URI scheme that has been [in the spec](https://spec.matrix.org/v1.15/appendices/#matrix-uri-scheme) since v1.2. It would be great if there were a client-independent and generic choice that I could make, to get client-independent links.

(Merge request to fix this upcoming, "Learn more" points to the matrix spec)

Research direction

Start with the issue’s Matrix URI Scheme v1.2 reference and inspect the current client-choice flow in matrix.to. Done means providing a client-independent generic choice that produces the specified matrix: link, with the Learn more link pointing to the Matrix specification.
