### 💡 Overview
Support server-side pinning when a participant joins a call. When the
SFU signals `isPinned: true` on a `ParticipantJoined` event, the
participant is automatically pinned with `isLocalPin: false`.
### 📝 Implementation notes
- Updated `watchParticipantJoined` to apply a server-side pin (`{
isLocalPin: false, pinnedAt: Date.now() }`) when `e.isPinned` is truthy
- Added two unit tests: one verifying the pin is set when `isPinned:
true`, another verifying no pin is set when `isPinned: false`
Ref: GetStream/protocol#1772
