Re: [webrtc-svc] `getCapabilities` seems to leak hardware capabilities w/o a permission (#22)

I second what @ShivanKaul says above and am reopening the issue. Whether or not a permission gate is the right solution here, there needs to be some solution to the fingerprinting surface the feature exposes.

Point taken that current implementations may not expose FP bits presently, but the more useful the API is (e.g. the more difference there is between platforms / implementations / devices) the more privacy-harming this FP surface will be. So, its important to get a solution in place before the horse is out of the barn :)
