Nested error JSON

[KitsuneRal]

The 429 error returned from /room/{id}/send/m.room.message/ is accompanied by the JSON body nested as follows: {"errcode":"M_UNKNOWN","error":"{\"errcode\":\"M_LIMIT_EXCEEDED\",\"error\":\"Too Many Requests\",\"retry_after_ms\":4079}"}. The request URL and the response to it can be seen in the Travis build of libqmatrixclient (failing for other reasons): https://travis-ci.org/QMatrixClient/libqmatrixclient/jobs/360536201#L1281. Fortunately the HTTP code is correct.

Possibly related to #2322.

See also matrix-org/matrix-python-sdk#193. Does the JS-sdk handle this gracefully?

According to the spec, the /send/ endpoint is not ratelimited (today), is this still a problem @KitsuneRal?

[KitsuneRal]

I believe it's still rate-limited - libQuotient CI confirms it. And I think it would be pretty much disastrous if it weren't.
