Permissions-Policy: gamepad appears to have been removed in #23470 for the reasons given in #23470 (comment)

The data is definitely wierd and needs to be looked at again.

Specifically,

@marcoscaceres Do you know if this actually did release in Chrome/Safari, and if so, in what versions

This falls out of the post mdn/content#42544

FYI @hamishwillee, I am planning to eventually comb through the Permissions Policy compatibility data alongside the docs updates (mdn/content#42534). At a minimum, there are currently many omissions, and I think some features inadvertently got lost in the conversion from Feature Policy to Permissions Policy.

(Sorry for not noticing this PR until you were already on vacation)

According to BCD, Safari does not support the Permission-Policy (see BCD table), but this header may actually be supported since [Safari 18](https://github.com/mdn/browser-compat-data/ blob/67a8c632fbd6e1a4b43ccffbb1575100c87ec46c/browsers/safari.json#L321-L327), see bug 241952 and WebKit/WebKit#25942 in WebKit 619.1.6.

@annevk Can you confirm that your PR added support for the HTTP Permissions-Policy header?

(BCD data also indicates that Safari never supported Feature-Policy, which seems wrong given this WebKit PR, unless the features are in WebKit, but were never enabled in Safari.)
