This is an edge case I didn't cover in bug 1206233.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open a page using the camera from an https url. Eg. https://people.mozilla.org/~fqueze2/webrtc/
2. Get a camera sharing prompt, answer it with the "Always share" submenu item.
3. Open the control center, see the Camera item says "Allow".
4. Load data:text/html,<iframe src="https://people.mozilla.org/~fqueze2/webrtc/" height=300></iframe>
5. Click the "Camera" button.
6. Open the control center panel.
Actual result:
The Camera item says "Allowed Temporarily". This is misleading.
Expected result:
I'm not sure. Either we should somehow force the code to display "Allow" there when a subframe has persistent permission. Or for a better solution, we may want to wait for UX to figure out how to present permissions from subframes of different origins (see bug 1225156).
