Proposal description
Not sure if there's a big interest by servers here, but most other providers (Plex,Emby,Jellyfin,Kodi,..) have some sort of local auto discovery services.
Zeroconf (https://kodi.wiki/view/Avahi_Zeroconf) for Kodi.
Known udp packet broadcast for the rest.
It would be nice to have something similar to simplify end user configuration when only using the server locally.
Backward compatibility impact

Backward compatibility
API details
TBD if enough interest.
Security impacts
Easier to discover OpenSubsonic servers on the network, But if the hacker is already on the LAN able to broadcast he can do nmap and lot worse anyway.
