Re: [mediacapture-main] Garbage collection of live tracks (#910)

> GC of live tracks is allowed, and should not be disallowed IMHO.

Other specs tend to provide rules like:
- If a track is live and there is a registered ended event listener, the track should not be GCed.
- If a live track is GCed, the track source should be notified that the track has ended.
The spec is probably underspecified here and it would be good to add such rules.

> the user agent is supposed to have persistent privacy indicators that the user can easily observe

I think we do not want to allow the web page to observe GC.
On the other hand, the user is not really a concern here so privacy indicators are probably out of scope of GC analysis.
