Re: [mediacapture-output] Implicit consent via getUserMedia should allow access to non-miked speakers (#147)

> The spec exposes microphones and (miked) speakers on microphone [use](https://w3c.github.io/mediacapture-main/getusermedia.html#set-device-information-exposure), not permission. We need to resolve [w3c/mediacapture-main#1019](https://github.com/w3c/mediacapture-main/issues/1019) first to ensure agreement on the privacy properties speakers would end up with here.

This issue is not about the mechanism to authorize enumeration of devices (use or permissions or whatever), but about allowing (not mandating) exposure of non-miked speakers once exposure of miked speakers is authorized, regardless of the mechanism for such authorization.

Solving https://github.com/w3c/mediacapture-main/issues/1019 is obviously not needed to solve this. The proposed solution does not require any changes to any current browser implementation, but would give extra flexibility to future implementations.

Also, if a future solution of https://github.com/w3c/mediacapture-main/issues/1019 requires changes to mediacapture-output, there is no reason why we cannot make such a change too.
