Re: [mediacapture-image] Clarify meaning of PTZ constraints presence (#256)

> In the first place, the purpose of the boolean is to allow to request PTZ permission without forcing any movement to a particular setting.

This seems like a natural and good default behavior. I think we should enforce it.
A web page can always use applyConstraints arbitrarily after getUserMedia resolves if they really have a good reason for that.

> Selection of a PTZ-capable camera is also very useful.

I agree it is worth discussing whether ptz boolean values should be ideal only or can also be exact.
I do not see the benefits of allowing a web page to ask for a PTZ that must specifically support pan values between -100 and 67.
