webauthn: workaround a security key bug on Windows 10.

Based on looking at logs, the following can happen:

  * A site sets residentKey=preferred in a create() call.
  * Chrome/Edge sees that and sets credProtect=2 by default, in case a discoverable credential is created.
  * Windows 10 has webauthn.dll version two. residentKey=preferred cannot be expressed in that version so it's mapped to rk=false.
  * credProtect=2 is passed to the security key by Windows.
  * The security key replies with credProtect=1 (bug).
  * Chrome/Edge reject that because a credProtect response that's present, but lower than requested, isn't considered valid.

This doesn't happen with Chrome on macOS because, there,
residentKey=preferred is mapped to rk=true and the credProtect issue
doesn't happen in that case with this security key.

Logo Chromium

Chromium is an open-source browser project that aims to build a safer, faster, and more stable way for all users to experience the web.

The project's web site is https://www.chromium.org.

To check out the source code locally, don't use git clone! Instead, follow the instructions on how to get the code.

Documentation in the source is rooted in docs/README.md.

Learn how to Get Around the Chromium Source Code Directory Structure.

For historical reasons, there are some small top level directories. Now the guidance is that new top level directories are for product (e.g. Chrome, Android WebView, Ash). Even if these products have multiple executables, the code should be in subdirectories of the product.

If you found a bug, please file it at https://crbug.com/new.
