Netinfo-api is implemented in Firefox (with a moz prefix). It could be extended to match the use cases I described.

WD-discovery-api is wonderfully flexible, but probably too scary for the user:
"example.com wants to scan you network for all TVs, printers, routers, TURN-Servers: Deny/Allow?"
I guess that's the reason why no browser supports it.
