Is there any design for this?

As far as I know, not yet.

Uploading the avatar is really tricky from MAS perspective right now, and we don't have a good way to interact with the regular C-S API from the My Account UI.

To add the required APIs on the MAS side, the quickest way would be to be able to call the C-S API as any user with the admin token MAS has to communicate with Synapse. I opened an issue on their side for this: matrix-org/synapse#16129

I've split off the avatar part into matrix-org/matrix-authentication-service#1542
