Re: [webauthn] [Editorial] platform authenticator relationship to WebAuthn Client and Client Device (#2164)

That example is described in [ยง6.2.1. Authenticator Attachment Modality](https://w3c.github.io/webauthn/#sctn-authenticator-attachment-modality):

>Some [platform authenticators](https://w3c.github.io/webauthn/#platform-authenticators) could possibly also act as [roaming authenticators](https://w3c.github.io/webauthn/#roaming-authenticators) depending on context. For example, a [platform authenticator](https://w3c.github.io/webauthn/#platform-authenticators) integrated into a mobile device could make itself available as a [roaming authenticator](https://w3c.github.io/webauthn/#roaming-authenticators) via Bluetooth. In this case [clients](https://w3c.github.io/webauthn/#client) running on the mobile device would recognise the authenticator as a [platform authenticator](https://w3c.github.io/webauthn/#platform-authenticators), while [clients](https://w3c.github.io/webauthn/#client) running on a different [client device](https://w3c.github.io/webauthn/#client-device) and communicating with the same authenticator via Bluetooth would recognize it as a [roaming authenticator](https://w3c.github.io/webauthn/#roaming-authenticators).
