Re: [webauthn] Discourage bootstrapping new credential provider as part of CREATE call (#2432)

The primary driver for this is smooth credential creation at sign-in when conditional create is not possible.
In this case the use might have already some passkey providers bootstrapped and could select one of those (but shouldn't be *pushed* to bootstrap another one). Note that happens today.
Or: the user might not have bootstrapped any provider yet. In which case failing is fine - there will likely be a better time for the user to create a new passkey (after sign-in via "settings" or during account recovery etc..
