  This event type is used to forward keys for end-to-end encryption. Typically
  it is encrypted as an ``m.room.encrypted`` event, then sent as a `to-device`_
  event.

          The Ed25519 key of the device which initiated the session originally.
          It is 'claimed' because the receiving device has no way to tell that the
          original room_key actually came from a device which owns the private part of
          this key unless they have done device verification.

          Chain of Curve25519 keys. It starts out empty, but each time the
          key is forwarded to another device, the previous sender in the chain is added
          to the end of the list. For example, if the key is forwarded from A to B to
          C, this field is empty between A and B, and contains A's Curve25519 key between
          B and C.
