credentials registry
  
To solve for these, we are adding a new registry mechanism that allows an app to provide digital credentials in a privacy-preserving way. At a high level, the provider app will be pre-registering all their candidate digital credentials with the Credential Manager; When Credential Manager receives an app request for a specific digital credential, it will run the credential matching and user selector UI in a sandbox.
