Extensions that are not supported are ignored.

All WebAuthn extensions are optional for both clients and authenticators. Thus, any extensions requested by a [RP] may be
ignored by the client browser or OS and not passed to the authenticator at all, or they may be ignored by the authenticator.
Ignoring an extension is never considered a failure in the WebAuthn API, so when [RPS] include extensions with any API calls,
they must be prepared to handle cases where some or all of those extensions are ignored.
