Handle errors when registration fails
Previously we would raise a 500 error in a variety of cases: - If a second key was being registered simultaneously (e.g. in a separate tab), which means the registration state could be missing after the first registration completes. That smells like an attack. - If the server-side verification failed e.g. origin verification, challenge verification, etc. The library seems to use 'ValueError' for all such errors [1] (after auditing its 'raise' statements, and excluding AttestationError [2], since we're not doing that). - If a key is used that attempts to sign with an unsupported algorithm. This would normally raise a NotImplemented error as part of verifying attestation [3], but we don't do that, so we need to verify the algorithm is supported by the library manually. This adds error handling to return a 400 response and error message in these cases, since the error is not unexpected (i.e. not a 500). A 400 seems more appropriate than a 403, since in many cases it's not clear if the request data is valid. I've used CBOR for the transport encoding, to match the successful request / response encoding. Note that the ordering of then/catch matters in JS - we don't want to catch our own throws!
