[w3ctag/design-reviews] FedCM API extension: Button Mode and User Other Account API (Issue #935)

こんにちは TAG-さん!

I'm requesting a TAG review of FedCM Button Mode API and Use Other Account API. These are extensions to the existing [FedCM API](https://fedidcg.github.io/FedCM/).

The web needs a long term solution for federated login, as browsers handle tracking on the web. While [heuristics](https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/g/blink-dev/c/yGhI6iTAfeA/m/Z4DR3K23AQAJ) can buy us some time in the short term, these two proposals extend FedCM to put us a couple steps closer to being able to operate federated login without them. The first extension handles a “button” mode (as opposed to / in addition to the current “widget” mode), where the browser needs to handle more gracefully when users are logged out of IdPs (take the user to login to the IdP, as opposed to failing silently), as Mozilla pointed out [here](https://github.com/fedidcg/FedCM/issues/442). The second extension allows users to “use other accounts” in the account chooser, for example, when IdPs support multiple accounts or replacing the existing account.
