Mute has traditionally been "this track is not producing data, this was intentional, and we're not telling you why".
https://w3c.github.io/mediacapture-main/getusermedia.html#track-muted

Do we have an operational need for the application to know why the track is muted, that can't be solved by the capturer inspecting the situation in other ways, for instance by inspecting the HTMLElement it did produceCropTarget() on?

If adding MuteCause, I'd add this to CropTarget, not to MediaStreamTrack.
