Re: [mediacapture-main] Remove redundant list-devices permission.

I guess what bugs me is that nowhere in 
https://github.com/w3c/mediacapture-main/pull/319 is there any mention
 or discussion of these behavioral changes. Its subject, "Text 
incorporating the Permissions API's definition of permission 
handling", makes it sound like a behaviorally neutral editorial PR. It
 makes me wonder if anyone noticed.

Whatever happened to arguing for a change before it can be adopted?

> the reason labels were hidden was a fingerprint concern. Once the 
fingerprint is taken (by exposing the label), I simply don't see the 
point of hiding them again (short of a full reset of info for that 
origin). It just makes life more complicated.

Oh so list-devices is persisted? That's a bigger change than I 
thought. 

This affects devicechange events as well, btw.
