Howdy for unlocking PC #919

Hi! While I understand Howdy can't access PAM before user logs in first, why not an option for unlocking the device afterwards. This would greatly increase its usefulness, and is how iOS / macOS work actually: first time you enter system password; then you can use biometrics later on. Thank you!
