[html-media-capture] Compress video before upload

octavn has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/html-media-capture:

== Compress video before upload ==
Another issue we are facing is the huge (in size) video files we get from Android. \

[iOS compresses the video before uploading](https://addpipe.com/blog/video-quality-when-recording-videos-from-safari-on-ios-through-html-media-capture/) down to 360x480 but Android does not, it just uses whatever resolution is set on the device.

We thus deal with a lot of huge (100-150MB) 60 second 4k & FullHD videos. 

Not sure if this is an issue that should be solved through the spec but it's something worth considering.
