Description
One of the most common questions in #riot:matrix.org is "Are 1:1 VoIP calls encrypted?"
Riot does not make it very clear right now that they are encrypted. The calling interface in needs some design to show people that it is encrypted.
At initial easy step might be to change the tooltips "Voice Call" and "Video Call" to "Encrypted Voice Call" and "Encrypted Video Call" when you are in a 1:1 room that is encrypted (yes unencrypted rooms also use encryption for VoIP but it's probably more clear to just explain to people that everything is encrypted in an encrypted room). Most people probably won't see it but maybe some will.
Other than that I'm not sure what the design should look like. Maybe you could put a shield on the calling buttons?
