Display the chat participants key fingerprint next to their username

Ideally, you should be able to see your own public key fingerprint and the room participants fingerprint.

This allow users to verify that the server is not doing a man-in-the-middle by swapping the public keys from the participants.

The frontend already has everything it needs, the required change is to hash the public keys to get a fingerprint which gets displayed in the UI.
