API surfaces this information in both isTypeSupported and MediaRecorder constructor.
In modern multi-process browser architecture, this is not ideal as this information may only be available asynchronously.

Should we deprecate isTypeSupported and use media capabilities API instead?
As of MediaRecorder constructor, I guess it might be fine to create a recorder and error it later on.

Are there any known cases where isTypeSupported() reports incorrect values?
