We want an option to disable the call encryption while it is not supported on all platforms and for specific experiments/demos. This is a very easy way to make this configurable for the ones working on/with it and allows to simplify some experiments.

Should be merged with: element-hq/element-web#26548

Checklist

  • Tests written for new code (and old code if feasible)
  • Linter and other CI checks pass
  • Sign-off given on the changes (see CONTRIBUTING.md)

This is not an "internal change" and I think it deserves a place in the changelog. I've relabelled it accordingly. Please don't just label everything as "T-Task".

On which note: I've also updated the title of the PR to better reflect what it's doing. Disabling encryption across the whole app would be quite a different thing! In general, please take the time to ensure your PR titles are accurate.
