– startNfcDetectionWithPassportNumber:dateOfBirth:expirationDate:
Call this to start reading a passport NFC. This will automatically show UI telling the user to bring the phone near a passport, and informing them of the progress. Results will be given to the delegate via the ALNFCDetectorDelegate protocol methods. The parameters are needed to authenticate with the NFC chip; for security, the chip can not be read without some visible information from the passport.
