Add a query API to the roomserver for getting the latest events in a room. (#23)

* Start implementing a query API for go using net/rpc

* Use a conventional JSON POST API rather than go net/rpc

net/rpc doesn't automatically handle reconnecting and we have better
logging and metrics infrastructure for monitoring HTTP apis.

* Implement the query API and add it to the integration tests

* Increase the timeout, travis seems to be a bit slow

* Clarify that state events are the things that are not returned if they are not requested

* Add utility function for converting arrays of numeric event IDs to pq Int64Arrays

* Warn people against requesting empty state keys by accident
