Bridging events of a specific user to matrix does not work.

[f4814]

There is one user, whose messages are not bridged from telegram to matrix. He is not a matrix user and has never interacted with the bridge. Everytime he sends a message on telegram, one of those exceptions shows up in the log:

I am running the latest release.

The power levels in that room are broken, but I'll add some type casting because synapse allows invalid types in power levels

Yeah. Thanks for the hint. One user had powerlevel of "0" (type string).

Thanks for all your work on the bridge!
