[webview_flutter_android] Set support for web authentication #186312

Open

Description

@creatorpiyush

Use case

The webview_flutter_android does not provide an API for enabling web authentication.

https://pub.dev/documentation/webview_flutter_android/latest/webview_flutter_android/AndroidWebViewController/isWebViewFeatureSupported.html

It is currently supporting only payment requests.

Proposal

Enable the support in the library so that Flutter apps can have passkey support and work with the in-app browsers.
