Authentication Method Reference values.

1. Introduction
The "amr" (Authentication Methods References) claim is defined and
registered in the IANA "JSON Web Token Claims" registry
[IANA.JWT.Claims], but no standard Authentication Method Reference
values are currently defined. This specification establishes a
registry for Authentication Method Reference values and defines an
initial set of Authentication Method Reference values.
For context, the "amr" (Authentication Methods References) claim is
