Re: [webauthn] Add "smart-card" to AuthenticatorTransport enum (WebKit) (#1835)

I went back and looked at 2018 issue https://github.com/fido-alliance/security-requirements/issues/258
It had to do with Chrome Web USB opening up CCID at the time.  I can't see a resulting pull request that actually blocked CCID so I probably miss remembered that.  I know Yubico removed the functionality for accessing CTAP over CCID at the time.   However, CCID access is also sort of useful.  

If there are no security problems, then a SC contact interface over CCID may be a candidate as a new transport.  

Is having that as a transport hint going to help Safari. 

Microsoft is the only other platform supporting CCID readers as far as I know.

We should probably get @akshayku 's opinion.
