Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

As a Nextcloud user, I want to have people book calls with me. The contents of the call may be sensitive, so I don't want public access to the conversation. However, right now conversations created for booked appointments are always public.

Describe the solution you'd like

Add functionality to allow the creation of private conversations with invited participants and internal users.

Describe alternatives you've considered

No response

Additional context

At the moment the backend room creation only allows setting the room to public and the room owner.

It does not allow setting the room type, the room to private or setting the actual participants.

Research direction

Start by locating the backend room-creation entry point described in the issue and inspect how booked appointments currently create public rooms. Determine how room type, privacy, the owner, invited participants, and internal users are represented. Done means booked appointments can create private conversations with the intended participants instead of always creating public rooms.
