Re: [mediacapture-main] 'label' needs direction and language metadata (#665)

Operating/windowing systems provide a way to set the base direction and language. Generally these default from the user's locale. See for example [MacOS](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appkit/nstextview/1449146-setbasewritingdirection) [Java](https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/awt/Component.html#setComponentOrientation-java.awt.ComponentOrientation-) [Windows](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/dwrite/nf-dwrite-idwritetextformat-setreadingdirection) [Android](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/View#setLayoutDirection(int)) etc.

Creating examples of broken display is trivial to do if you use some of the examples in String-Meta. I have a demo HTML page that uses Javascript to show our examples live (to address Domenic's comment on our TAG issue) which I will try to post in the next few days.

I'd prefer if we added attributes now rather than later--because I suspect that "later" you'll want to use the backwards compatibility argument for not adding them 😉.
