Add redirect_uri to (Deferred) Credential (Error) Response to continue interaction with end user

 * `transaction_id`: OPTIONAL. String identifying a Deferred Issuance transaction. This parameter is contained in the response if the Credential Issuer cannot immediately issue the Credential. The value is subsequently used to obtain the respective Credential with the Deferred Credential Endpoint (see (#deferred-credential-issuance)). It MUST not be used if the `credentials` parameter is present. It MUST be invalidated after the Credential for which it was meant has been obtained by the Wallet.
 * `interval`: REQUIRED if `transaction_id` is present. Contains a positive number that represents the minimum amount of time in seconds that the Wallet SHOULD wait after receiving the response before sending a new request to the Deferred Credential Endpoint. It MUST NOT be used if the `credentials` parameter is present.
 * `notification_id`: OPTIONAL. String identifying one or more Credentials issued in one Credential Response. It MUST be included in the Notification Request as defined in (#notification). It MUST not be used if the `credentials` parameter is not present.
+* `redirect_uri`: OPTIONAL. String containing a URI. When this parameter is present, the Wallet SHOULD give the user the option to redirect the user agent to this URI once the wallet issuance is completed, been deferred or failed. This allows the Issuer to continue the interaction with the End-User. If the Wallet sends multiple consecutive Credential Requests and receives multiple `redirect_uri` values, the Wallet SHOULD provide the option to redirect to at least one of them after the last response has been processed. See implementing considerations in (#redirect-uri-ambiguity) to resolve ambiguity.

+## Redirect Uri Ambiguity {#redirect-uri-ambiguity}
+
+The `redirect_uri` parameter as defined in (#credential-response) and used in Credential (Error) Response and Deferred Credential (Error) Response enables the Credential Issuer to interact with the End-User after issuance is completed, been deferred or failed. To eliminate the `redirect_uri` ambiguity in multi‑credential issuance flows, the Credential Issuer should either use the same `redirect_uri` for all requests that share the same Access Token, or split the process into several single‑credential issuance flows. In any case, the Credential Issuer must not rely on the End-User to open the `redirect_uri`.
