Specification
https://wicg.github.io/local-network-access/#integration-with-webtransport


Summary
Restricts the ability to make requests to the user's local network using 
WebTransport, gated behind a permission prompt. A local network request is any 
request from a public website to a local IP address or loopback, or from a 
local website (eg intranet) to loopback. Gating the ability for websites to 
perform these requests behind a permission reduces the ability of sites to use 
these requests to fingerprint the user's local network. This permission is 
restricted to secure contexts. This work is adding to the Local Network Access 
Restrictions work here: https://chromestatus.com/feature/5152728072060928
