Re: [mediacapture-screen-share] Conditional Focus (When Display-Capture Starts) (#190)

Just wanted to give my vote for having this API again. 
Today yet another user of our application told us they thought they were already recording their screen after they shared their tab and it jumped to the tab they shared. 
We already try to hint them to come back to our tab through the title and favicon like this: 
![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/184774/162440494-39548bd6-a1b9-436f-a4a4-2426d8a44513.png)
And we try to explain that they should always come back to our tab in our UI, but still users get confused sometimes.

Because we record two streams at the same time, and we need to sync those up, starting recording automatically on a screen share is not good enough. MediaRecorders take time to start, sometimes even multiple seconds. We need to let the user know exactly when the recorder started so they don't start talking before we are actually recording.

In our application specifically we never want the auto-focus behavior to happen and would love to be able to disable it.
