Re: [mediacapture-screen-share-extensions] Consider dropping permission for captured surface control APIs (#14)

Summarizing things:
* Chrome believes a permissions prompt is a hard requirement for its own implementation.
* Tim demonstrates that Chrome's position is reasonable and this philosophy is shared by others.
* Elad argues that if other browsers wish to avoid the prompt, it's trivial for other browsers to avoid it.
* Youenn [raises](https://github.com/w3c/mediacapture-screen-share-extensions/issues/14#issuecomment-2429460646) the issue of revocation, which Elad argues is a great example for the benefits of the pre-existing, well-specced and well-implemented Permissions mechanisms.
* No feasible mitigations have been demonstrated that would obviate the need for permissions. (And recall again revocation!)
