MatrixChat was trying to display an error if the session failed to
restore, but it was never actually being shown because it was just
set as a member variable and therefore never actually caused
a re-render for the error to be displayed. Almost all errors are
caught by _restoreFromLocalStorage which displays the fancy dialog
if your session can't be restored, so I'm not convinced this ever
even tried to do anything anyway. Remove it.

Based off of #782

We used to show a special error message when we got this error; however
#783 made that not work.

You'll only hit it if you're upgrading from some ancient version of Olm, and
I'm quite happy for us to fall back to the generic 'couldn't restore: vape your
storage?' flow in that case. (In any case that's preferable to dumping you at
the login prompt with no warning that we've just vaped your storage).
