[webauthn] credential id privacy

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

== credential id privacy ==
the current editor's draft does not limit credential id in any way 
while it promises that the privacy of the user is protected cross RP -
 unlinkability.
https://w3c.github.io/webauthn/#credential-id

The Privacy subsection 
https://w3c.github.io/webauthn/#sec-attestation-privacy mentions 
Attestation Keys but not credential id. A credential id could leak PII
 if the platform or the authenticator is not careful about this.

If https://github.com/w3c/webauthn/issues/6 introduces structure to 
credential id then information leakage should be considered too.
