Report a phantom call to CallKit on PushKit early-return paths

iOS kills the app if a VoIP push isn't followed by reportNewIncomingCall, so
report an immediately ended call on every early-return path, named after the
room. A duplicate of an ongoing call is reported as answered elsewhere and an
expired push as a missed call that can be tapped to call back.
