Implements MSC4440 as alternative and standardised format to Commets own biography field.
(most of the code was written by @dozro, but i took over and fixed it up)

Currently, this will still set Commets own key in addition to MSC4440 for backwards compatibility with older versions of Commet.
However, if an MSC4440 field is set, it will prefer rendering that one over the Commet one (which shouldn't break any "legacy" biographies, as they're only set on the Commet field and the new one won't exist)

Ideally, after a few versions/weeks/months of this being merged and released, no longer setting the Commet biography and removing its profile key seems ideal, and after some time later, fully removing it. Though that's out of scope for this PR :3
