Re: [mediacapture-region] Should cropTo be able to directly take an element as input? (#19)

I think it's a good idea, but a non-blocking ergonomics improvement that affects only some cases. I'm marking it as such.

Resolution: Make `cropTo(Element)` implicitly create a `CropTarget` behind the scenes, and the getter will return that token, with no observable difference to the program between whether cropTo(Element) or cropTo(CropTarget) was previously called. 

Noteworthy: An implicitly minted CropTarget is how Chrome would implement this anyway, and most likely other UAs as well.
