Re: [webauthn] Add new isPasskeyPlatformAuthenticatorAvailable() method (#1901)

> You guys just proved my point that the word "passkey" is confusing :) It must be defined precisely if you want to use it in the technical documentation. And I'm afraid your definition will differ from what most people think when they hear word "passkey", so I would avoid introducing it to the spec, unless you are ready to promote and defend your definition across the board :)

But this diff is attempting to codify the meaning of a passkey in the context of WebAuthn: it's a [Discoverable Credential](https://w3c.github.io/webauthn/#discoverable-credential). Nothing more nor less than what is currently included in L3. If "discoverable credential" is confusing then that means the spec needs clarification about what a discoverable credential is.
