There should be a way to test that Sloshy has access to a room when you initially add it.

Perhaps Sloshy should post an "I'm here" message when entering a room for the first time.

(The current design doesn't make it easy to see which rooms in a configuration file are new. Sloshy could search for previous messages from himself, but that would cause a bit of a splash when we introduce this change, with unnecessary notices in several rooms.)

20 reinforces the idea to post an announcement when Sloshy starts watching a new room. Having it do that would also sort out the pesky problem when Sloshy lacks access to a new room.

Commit https://github.com/tripleee/sloshy/commit/ef131b2772ba701272e65aaf9f0198c14d5127ed adds a hook to test-pushed.yml to check that Sloshy is able to visit all rooms in the configuration file.
