x402 on BNB Chain: USDT and USDC cannot sign a transfer authorization (no EIP-3009) — USD1 can

Checked on chain today: authorizationState(address,bytes32) — the EIP-3009 view — reverts on BSC USDT (0x55d398326f99059fF775485246999027B3197955) and USDC (0x8AC76a51cc950d9822D68b83fE1Ad97B32Cd580d), and answers on USD1 (0x8d0d000ee44948fc98c9b98a4fa4921476f08b0d, 18 decimals).
What it means for an agent that takes x402 payments: a buyer cannot sign a gasless USDT/USDC transfer for you to submit. Price in a token that has transferWithAuthorization (USD1 here), or take the plain way: the buyer sends a normal transfer and you verify its receipt.
One more choice we measured: with scheme eip3009 the RECEIVER submits the authorization and pays the gas to collect — fine with a facilitator that sponsors it, a cost to you without one. We serve scheme "exact" (the buyer's own transfer, verified by reading the chain) and keep accepts[] an array, so more schemes can sit beside it. Every accepts[] entry needs maxTimeoutSeconds (#44).
