Allow autoplay of media contents without requiring a user gesture in native WebView windows #162

Goals:

[ ] Can configure autoplay permissions (audio/video) so that user gestures are no longer required
[ ] API should lend itself to other permissions (in the FFI layer only)
[ ] Defaults to enable autoplay since limiting this for native apps makes no sense

This might be tricky, as it requires accessing the webview and not just the browser engine (wrapper) that is currently extended.

Relevant APIs:

Can probably start work on this once #201 is completed, as it will be easier to control all of the stack (down to the OS level at least).
