Use WAC ontology for authorizing authentication

I have opened a discussion in the authorization panel space https://github.com/solid/authorization-panel/discussions/258 on the topic "Use WAC ontology for authorizing authentication". This issue here can then be used later to report on the consensus.

Tweet length summary: One can use the WAC ontology to authorise Wallets to sign requests for particular resources.

That would reduce the need to have Access Control Resources specify lists of clients they want to allow access to, and also be bring together all the rules for user agents in one location.

If we are going to discuss it there, can we close this issue?

No, this issue is to report on the conensus that emerges.

How about when we reach some actionable consensus we follow up with PR that documents it?
