Bring back the website permission for sound

Previously, the permission for websites to play sound was hidden behind a flag in edge://flags that enables this to show in settings. Weird that they would hide this, considering it's built into Chromium and therefore built into Chrome and all Chromium browsers by default, but okay, whatever.

Now this feature is completely removed from the browser. Not actually removed from its internals, it's still visibly grandfathered in to some websites that I gave sound permission that show up when I search sound in settings, but there is literally no way to alter their sound permissions anymore.

What's up with this? This is a terrible change. I came to Edge for the not-being-Google, I stayed because it's a great browser with great features, and I will leave if you remove basic features that are literally built into Chromium for the sake of being different.
