None of the common passkey implementations support attestation.

Apple doesn't support it at all anymore; Google only supports it for non-synchronized credentials (which are arguably not passkeys). Bitwarden obviously doesn't either (it can't, as a pure software implementation).

Developer of what? There's no competing software solution that supports attestation, and hardware authenticators complement software ones, rather than compete with them.
