I know that the hostapd config file has an entire WPS section, but
have no experience using WPS, so can't speak as to how to configure
or use it.  I don't know if it's planned to include support for a
push button trigger.

from hostapd.conf in git:

# Config Methods
# List of the supported configuration methods
# Available methods: usba ethernet label display ext_nfc_token
int_nfc_token
#       nfc_interface push_button keypad
#config_methods=label display push_button keypad
