Re: [webauthn] Add a method to get the count of the credentials for a rely party on the client device to support the rely party (website) to limit the number of accounts a user can register (#2222)

@emlun Thank you for your explanation, but I can not agree with you. I don't think my request is contradicted by the W3C Ethical Web Principles, whose motivation is making the web better.
If a user can register unlimited number of accounts on a website easily, he/she can violate the rules of the website, and register a new account after his/her account was closed by the website. Please notice that if the user destroy the website, he/she also hurt other users on this website.
If we protect users' privacy excessively and do not think of RP(website), the benefits of the users will eventually be hurt, and thus the motivation of the W3C Ethical Web Principles is betrayed.
