[csswg-drafts] [css-media-queries-4] color-gamut contradiction of UA vs output support (#4281)

gregwhitworth has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts:

== [css-media-queries-4] color-gamut contradiction of UA vs output support ==
Looking at the `color-gamut` CSS [property ](https://drafts.csswg.org/mediaqueries-4/#color-gamut) there seems to be a contradiction between that of the propdef and the definition of the color spaces themselves.

> The color-gamut media feature describes the approximate range of colors that are supported by the UA and output device.

This seems to contradict the definitions of the color spaces:

> The output device can support approximately the sRGB gamut or more.

There will be scenarios in which the UA can render a specific color space but the display output cannot and vice versa. I think the Note following the propdef normative text is trying to get this point across but it would be valuable to understand if this MQ is stating either:

1. The UA & the display output can support the given color space
2. the display can support the given color space.

It makes sense to me that it should be option 1
