Re: [compute-pressure] Does compute pressure reflect OS-level speed limit changes due to throttling? (#228)

Yes, we do observe compute pressure during Huddles with this API and have since M125. We don't currently use compute pressure levels to dynamically adapt quality, but do use it in internal reporting around performance/quality and as a diagnostic for reports about poor quality or performance. In general, I have found it quite useful/reliable for these things. 

We haven't yet used the 'thermals' source, mainly because we already use a comparable [event](https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/api/power-monitor#event-thermal-state-change-macos) emitted by Electron to detect thermal states. But I think it would be preferable to be using a Chromium API for this, so I'll definitely experiment with it and see how that goes.
