Some CP vendors want to specify a different URL specifically tailored for
remediation of a session. By providing a 3rd URL, we can accommodate this
use case.

if a remediation URL is present, and if it fails to load for whatever
reason, no need to fallback to user portal URL: CP vendor should make sure
the remediation URL is working properly (this is similar to user-portal url
should work properly, if not, there is no other way for user to clear a CP)

A boolean field could also be a positive signal to notify UE that
remediation is possible, but this would prevent CP vendors from using
different URLs for remediation.

(As mentioned in the initial thread, this URL approach is also taken by the
Passpoint release 2.0 spec to signal remediation process.)
