summary: Do we need an C-S API for querying historical room metadata?

description: |-
Currently we handle historical room metadata (e.g. topic changes) by supplying an event which has a prev_content key to show the previous value of said metadata. This means that as the user paginates back through history of a room, they know what the current value should be.
However, this doesn't allow arbitrary querying of historical state if you're not paginating - e.g. when doing a search on room history. It also is a bit inefficient, as it doubles the size of these events.
Do we need a separate API for querying the room metadata state at a given version token?
