Try to set canonical room alias on room creation.

The spec does not require servers to apply a room canonical alias event upon room creation (yet).
Still, synapse does that, since users can set their desired alias in Elements room creation dialog.
With this commit, conduit also sets that alias if it is a valid one.

This closes https://gitlab.com/famedly/conduit/-/issues/123
