Consolidate logic for parsing relations. (#12693)

Parse the `m.relates_to` event content field (which describes relations)
in a single place, this is used during:

* Event persistence.
* Validation of the Client-Server API.
* Fetching bundled aggregations.
* Processing of push rules.

Each of these separately implement the logic and each made slightly
different assumptions about what was valid. Some had minor / potential
bugs.
