Title:
  [indicators] Add a quick controls for microphone (mute/unmute)

Status in indicator-sound package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Right now, the sound indicator allows only to mute/unmute or change
  the speakers (output) level.

  It would be great if it could also provide a quick control for the
  microphone (input).

  By doing so, users will have a quick feedback regarding the reason why
  the sound input is not working... in most cases the input level being
  muted or too low.

  <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MenuBar#system-status>: "Starting from the
  trailing end: * system menu * clock menu * sound menu * microphone
  menu * network menu..."

  <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Sound#settings-pc>: "At the bottom left
  corner of the System Settings “Sound” panel should be “Show in the
  menu bar:” checkboxes, “Sound volume” and “Microphone”. By default in
  a new user’s account, “Sound volume” should be checked and
  “Microphone” should be unchecked."

  <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Sound#microphone-menu>: "Whenever “Show in
  the menu bar: Microphone” is checked, a microphone menu should be
  present in the system status area..."
