Re: [mediacapture-screen-share] Allow screen-captured applications to self-declare a capture handle (#159)

> We've also in the past rejected ways for a site to know its being captured by _getDisplayMedia_ (sites wanting to redact sensitive information etc) since it may defeat the reasons a user wishes to capture a page in the first place.

I'd expected as much, and avoided this. With this method, the captured site does **not** find out it's being captured. Unless, that is, the capturing site sends the captured site a message to that effect out-of-band. But this much is fine.

Please note how both sides here are opt-in:
1. Capturing site can identify the captured site only if the captured site opts-into being identified (globally).
2. Captured site only finds out if capturing site tells it. (And the mechanism for this is out of scope.)
