[w3ctag/design-reviews] Web Authentication: Large Blob extension (Issue #820)

[Salutations TAG](https://media.tenor.com/roGe-w-ua44AAAAC/penny-salutations.gif)!

I'm requesting a TAG review of the Web Authentication Large Blob extension.

The Web Authentication Large Blob extension allows relying parties to store small amounts of opaque data associated with a credential on an authenticator. This is useful for authentication schemes involving storing certificates on authenticators.
