Re: [mediacapture-main] fixed, per origin, device ID creates tracking risk (#607)

Chromium follows a similar approach as WebKit and maintaining consistency for the 1,2,3... IDs entails more complexity than extra storage space on disk.
What about using empty IDs if a permission has not been given? It would still support the use case of detecting the addition/removal of a device to enable/disable features in the application and would mitigate the tracking concerns for users that have not given permission.
