https://w3c.github.io/mediacapture-extensions/#the-camera-html-element
https://w3c.github.io/mediacapture-extensions/#the-microphone-html-element

Description

The <camera> and <microphone> HTML elements works the same as the <usermedia> element but requesting single camera or microphone access directly within a user's workflow. This new elements move beyond traditional permission management by facilitating seamless, direct interaction with media streams, thereby simplifying technical implementation for developers by reducing or eliminating the need for independent JavaScript API calls.

I looked into the existing <usermedia> featured added in #3983. It current references the PEPC spec, but the commit notes that it should move to Media Capture Extensions once the spec work lands. Would it make sense for this issue to update features/usermedia.yml into a broader media capture elements feature, or should <camera> and <microphone> be tracked as separate feature entries?
