Hi!

Thanks for continuing to maintain the library. A couple of suggestions to improve the examples in the README.

  • clean up use of w for both the ResponseWriter and the webauthn.WebAuthn instance. The official go docs use w for the ResponseWriter so I suggest to optimize for familiarity and give the WebAuthn instance a new name
  • leverage the convenience functions FinishLogin and FinishRegistration (unless I'm missing something why the shouldn't be used)

This changes the variable names of the examples slightly to use the commonly
used w for the ResponseWriter and removes the clash with the WebAuthn instance.

The examples can be simplified to use the convenience functions offered by the
library.

As someone looking at this library for the first time, I found the changes @robinbrandt proposed here very useful for clearing up some of my confusion about the readme examples. 👍
