Consider adding accessibility considerations for authors #854

Description

@tidoust

WebCodecs is a low-level API, which should not have direct accessibility implications for implementations.

WebCodecs makes it easier for applications to implement their own media player. Built-in media players come with accessibility related features, including the ability to slow or pause playback, support for captions, or switching to an audio description stream. The spec already has a Best Practices for Authors Using WebCodecs section. It could perhaps be completed to include accessibility considerations ("with great powers come great responsibility").
