Join Room is hard to find

Description
A common question on IRC seems to be "how do I join an IRC channel?" The Room menu is not discovered, possibly this is because Room is Telepathy lingo, not IRC lingo.
Given as the Chat menu now has 'New Conversation' and 'New Call'. I wonder if it shouldn't also have a duplicate of 'Join Room', or alternatively, move the entire Room menu into Chat.
Other options include a checkbox in New Conversation 'Join as Multi User Chat'. We could also try and do something smart, like detect room handles for some protocols, like # for IRC.
