[webauthn] Client hints for external authenticator form factory (#2360)

timcappalli has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/webauthn:

== Client hints for external authenticator form factory ==
## Description

Most WebAuthn clients today use the "security key" terminology in authenticator / credential selection dialogs to represent external authenticators. Additional form factors have been introduced in the market such as cards, rings, and badges, and there has been some feedback that this can be confusing to users in some environments. 

An example is a payment card with an embedded passkey that can be used via NFC. 

We should consider addressing this as part of a wider "client terminology hints" effort to include #2086, in Level 4.
