[w3c/manifest] Add `installed` CSS media feature (PR #1218)

Closes #1092

This change:

* Adds new normative requirements

Implementation commitment:

* [ ] WebKit (https://bugs.webkit.org)
* [ ] Chromium (https://bugs.chromium.org/) — crbug.com/382114911
* [ ] Gecko (http://bugzilla.mozilla.org)

If change is normative, and it adds or changes a member:

* [ ] [updated JSON schema](https://github.com/SchemaStore/schemastore/blob/master/src/schemas/json/web-manifest.json)

Commit message:

Adds the `installed` CSS media feature, a boolean discrete feature that
reflects whether the current browsing context is running as an installed
web application. Values: `none` (not installed) and `installed`.

Same-origin iframes inherit the parent value; cross-origin iframes
evaluate to `none`. The value can transition from `none` to `installed`
if the UA promotes a browsing context (e.g., Chrome tab reparenting).

Agreed at TPAC 2025 (w3c/manifest#1092).
