Re: [webauthn] Note to encourage storage of registered credential details (#1556)

This is something I'm tackling right now in my library. A user raised an issue requesting additional information out of attestation verification so that they could more closely design their RP around [Yubico's developer guide](https://developers.yubico.com/WebAuthn/WebAuthn_Developer_Guide/Registering_Multiple_Devices.html), which encourages the "credentials" table to store the following information:

So there's at least something out in the wild taking an opinionated stance on what information out of an attestation is/might be useful for future-proofing an RP as utilization of WebAuthn grows and the spec evolves.

This guide seems like a reasonable starting point for the WACG to have this conversation considering everything except the last three are things that can be extracted from an attestation and stored fairly easily (`metadata` is how they track things like authenticator attachment, "form factor", OS, etc...). Unless someone beats me to it I can bring it up at our next meeting on 2/8.
