Add separate OtpDeliveryMethodForm for IdV#2440
Conversation
**Why**: In the IdV flow, we know the number will be a US number so we don't have to validate delivery methods against the phone number. Additionally, we don't need to update the user's delivery preference. For these reasons it makes more sense for the IdV flow to have it's own form.

Here's a wild idea: what if we got rid of this otp_delivery_selection_form altogether? The only thing it's doing is making sure the method is either "sms" or "voice", and the only way it would not be is if someone deliberately manipulated the HTML on the page before submitting the form. How about if we default to "sms" if something other than "sms" or "voice" is submitted?

Or maybe default to not do anything and display the delivery selection page again.

It makes some changes to the idv session in the other PR. The delivery preference gets saved there instead of added as a url param. We could move that logic to the controller, but idk if we want to?

Actually, I'm looking at my new code now and I do actually already set it in the controller. Hmm, yeah we can try removing it completely.

Though another downside of not have a form is that we don't have a result object to feed to analytics here.

All good. I think we decided to leave this here when we discussed this offline.

Hi! Before submitting your PR for review, and/or before merging it, please
go through the checklists below. These represent the more critical elements
of our code quality guidelines. The rest of the list can be found in

Database
Unsafe migrations are implemented over several PRs and over several
deploys to avoid production errors. The strong_migrations gem
will warn you about unsafe migrations and has great step-by-step instructions
for various scenarios.
Indexes were added if necessary. This article provides a good overview
of indexes in Rails.
Verified that the changes don't affect other apps (such as the dashboard)
When relevant, a rake task is created to populate the necessary DB columns
in the various environments right before deploying, taking into account the users
who might not have interacted with this column yet (such as users who have not
set a password yet)
Migrations against existing tables have been tested against a copy of the
production database. See LG-228 Make migrations safer and more resilient #2127 for an example when a migration caused deployment
issues. In that case, all the migration did was add a new column and an index to
the Users table, which might seem innocuous.
