Description

In [4.2.1](https://indieauth.spec.indieweb.org/#application-information) it is implicit that the `application` is a web application.

This should be re-written to take into account that there are device-based applications too.

Research direction

Start with section 4.2.1 of the IndieAuth specification, especially the Application Information text linked in the issue. Compare the wording for web applications with device-based applications, then revise the section so its scope covers both; done means the specification no longer implies that every application is web-based.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
