Description
Spring Security should add support for serialize/deserialize PublicKeyCredentialCreationOptions with ObjectMapper so it is easier to persist with Spring Session.
NOTE: WebauthnJackson2Module is used for reading/writing to the HTTP Response which includes untrusted inputs. This means that it cannot enable default-typing otherwise it could create deserialization vulnerabilities.

Research direction
Start by locating WebauthnJackson2Module and usages of PublicKeyCredentialCreationOptions, then inspect how ObjectMapper serialization is configured for Spring Session persistence. Done means these options can be safely serialized and deserialized without enabling default typing in the module used for untrusted HTTP response inputs.
