Re: [webauthn] Support a "create or get [or replace]" credential re-association operation (#1568)

Pointing out that the need for "get or create" becomes even more critical with platforms now starting to support platform authenticators that are synchronized between devices (eg Apple's announcements in WWDC21) as well as more and more platforms supporting cross-browser platform authenticators and/or native app authenticators shared with browsers (e.g iOS 14.5). 

Many RPs are bringing this up as a barrier to adopting a platform-authenticator, username-less flow.

A "get or create" operation could also offer to the user, in one prompt, to either choose an existing credential or register a new one.
