[webauthn] §9.5. "Authenticator extension processing" is ambiguous

emlun has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/webauthn:

== §9.5. "Authenticator extension processing" is ambiguous ==
As discussed in #724, [§9.5. Authenticator extension processing][sec] could use a revision to make it less ambiguous.

>The CBOR authenticator extension input value of each processed authenticator extension is included in the extensions data part of the authenticator request. This part is a CBOR map, with CBOR extension identifier values as keys, and the CBOR authenticator extension input value of each extension as the value.

This section can be interpreted as both of the following:

- The authenticator extension inputs as a whole is a CBOR map, where the values are not necessarily maps.
- Each value in the authenticator extension inputs is a CBOR map.
