Port #1481 to release

This changes the key backup setup step to only sign with cross-signing keys when
both the public and private keys are already available without prompting. In
many cases down these paths, the cross-signing keys either may not exist or may
not be accessible. We always sign the key backup with your device key as well,
so there is always a route to trust the key backup even if this is skipped.

Fixes element-hq/element-web#15230
