The error responses from /leave do not conform to the spec.

Description

The spec (https://spec.matrix.org/v1.3/client-server-api/#post_matrixclientv3roomsroomidleave) only allows two possible responses from a call to /leave. A 200 if the room was left, or 429 if the request was rate limited.

However, Synapse will return different responses depending on your, and your homeservers state in the room:

1. Leaving a room that doesn't exist on the host returns "M_UNKNOWN" (Not a known room)
2. Leaving a room on the host that I was never in (but the host is still joined to via another user) will result in a M_FORBIDDEN.
3. Leaving a room that I was previously in will always no-op with a 200.

The spec is unfortunately doesn't define the behaviour for trying to leave a room when you were never part of it, but my feeling is that it should no-op in a similar fashion to reinviting users, or rejoining a room also no-op.

Steps to reproduce

For case 1:

• Try to /leave a random roomID that you totally made up.
• Observe the error

For case 2:

• Create a room your homeserver
• Try to /leave that room from another user who was never joined to it.
• Observe the error

For case 3:

• Create a room.
• Leave the room.
• Leave the room (and repeat as much as you like)
• Observe a 200 response with an empty body.
