[BUG] WebGL is broken in v106.0.5249.61 due to nonexistent Metal framework

[Wowfunhappy]

WebGL does not work in the latest stable build (v106.0.5249.61) on OS X 10.9.5.

According to chrome://gpu

GPU process was unable to boot: GPU process crashed too many times with SwiftShader. Disabled Features: all

Launching Chromium Legacy via the Terminal reveals the cause of the crash:

This is of course annoying because Swiftshader is a software renderer and should not be using Metal.
