[w3ctag/design-reviews] (brand new ✨) Web Install API (Issue #1051)

diekus created an issue (w3ctag/design-reviews#1051)

Hola (again) TAG!

I'm requesting a TAG review of the Web Install API.

**The Web Install API provides a way to democratise and decentralise web application acquisition**, by enabling ["do-it-yourself" developers to have control](https://www.w3.org/TR/ethical-web-principles/#control) over the application discovery and distribution process, providing them with the tools they need to allow a web site to install a web app. This means **end users have the option to more easily discover new applications and experiences that they can acquire with reduced friction**.
