Re: [w3c/permissions] Drop .request() (#83)

@jyasskin Even if you modify the polyfill to set `track.enabled = false` the instant you've obtained the camera, the camera light would likely still come on for a second or two (to combat the turning-on-and-off-quickly exploit @alvestrand mentions), and the browser's device indicators would likely still blare red for the duration as before (with a slightly modified skin), which seems undesirable.

Since it encourages Android-style permission bundling, we may also want to actively discourage it working.
