fix: edit history original shows pre-edit content

Browse Source 
mEvent.getContent() returns post-edit content because matrix-js-sdk applies
the latest replace event in-memory. Reading mEvent.event.content gives the
raw server content (the true original before any edits). Edit entries from
the relations API correctly use m.new_content per Matrix spec.
