MicroG should use/register as official passkey provider to allow fallbacks/provider selection etc.

Description
Describe the bug
If you have multiple Passkey providers installed, only the third-party provider is currently used on my system.
To Reproduce
Basically install KeePassDX and set it up with Passkey support. Then you can only save/requests passkeys from them anymore, not microG, anymore.
See https://github.com/Kunzisoft/KeePassDX/issues/2310
Expected behavior
In the settings, apparently there is this screen:
microG should appear here, so the OS can correctly handle that.
Screenshots
Currently it looks like this:
System
Android Version: 15
Custom ROM: CalyxOS 6.10.20
Additional context
Technically the library https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/credentials is recommend.

Research direction
Start by tracing microG's Android passkey and credential-provider integration, then compare it with the AndroidX Credentials guidance linked in the issue. Reproduce the setup on Android 15 with KeePassDX installed; done means microG appears in the provider settings and provider selection or fallback behavior works.
