Pushed a branch with this suggestion implemented:
http://git.collabora.co.uk/?p=user/ptlo/tp-spec-senko/.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/mute

Since the method is informational, there's no need for transitive states, so it
also simplifies the interface a bit.

Related point: AIUI it's implicitly understood that only the channel handler
should mute the call (after all, it's probably the one actually controlling
mic/camera anyways). Should we mandate this, or should we explicitly say that
any client can do it? (in which case, all clients should be watching for
MuteStateChange to know what's the current state and whether they can mute or
unmute it).

(TBH I don't have a good use case for why anyone but handler would need it.)
