Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-color-6] contrast-color() and gamut mapping (#8539)

What @svgeesus said, plus I think as a general principle, when a decision involves a tradeoff between accessibility and fingerprinting avoidance, we should err on the side of a11y.

To summarize, the proposal we need resolution on is: **Before calculating contrast for any color pair, regardless of contrast algorithm, gamut map both colors to the screen gamut**.

Side thought: if CSS has access to this operation, I wonder if it may make sense to expose it to authors somehow, e.g. so they could create design systems based on actually displayable accent colors. But that's a topic for another issue.
