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

>This seems overkill.

@youennf I don't think I care about that, since what constraints bring of value to this spec is the established user semantics. 

I think trying to carve out exceptions to those semantics solely for ptz is what is sinking us, and why we're here opening issues. 

While I appreciate the value of reducing functionality for test coverage, I think the constraints ship has sailed. Especially since we're not talking about a new API here, but extensions to the existing `getUserMedia` and `applyConstraints` APIs. It's more important to me that all constraints in the same dictionary behave the same, than looking for implementer corners to cut.

Challenging the core tenets of the constraints algorithm at this late stage also seems out of scope for this issue, even this spec. If you will: it seems overkill to me is to reinvent constraints over this issue. If you'd still like to try, please open a separate issue, since I think we should be able to make progress here in parallel.
