Re: [webauthn] Fix #1285 - Remove icons from PublicKeyCredentialEntity (#1337)

> As discussed in issue #1285, the image URL fields for PublicKeyCredentialEntity, while intended for user interface design, are potent correlation mechanisms if they are downloaded by RPs. RPs would have to take extraordinary care, beyond reasonable measures, to avoid uses by RPs with mal-intent to cross-correlate accounts. It is better for User Agents to use existing origin/icon mechanisms for their UX designs, or to define new such mechanisms as-needed, that are origin-wide rather than provide the possibility to embed detailed tracking information into these URLs.
