App should work without Olm #12815

in some places, we get soft crashes when encryption is not enabled (for example several methods in the MatrixClient throw IIRC). we should handle these cases as we can't export olm to some countries but still want people to be able to use riot there

https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/12802 is an example of this

There might also be something to do in the e2ee initialization, see rageshake above where it fails to load olm.wasm, but still reports it is using webassembly.
