WebKit missing in cypress info

Current behavior

When WebKit is installed, cypress info fails to list it. On a GitHub-hosted windows-2022 runner, where Chrome, Edge and Firefox are installed by default, only these browsers are listed, not WebKit:

Desired behavior

cypress info should list WebKit when it is installed and npx cypress info is executed.

For comparison, when the Cypress app is started with npx cypress open --e2e a WebKit icon is shown for selection.

cy app webkit

Other

Refer to WebKit (Experimental) documentation which specifies using playwright-webkit@1.34 currently corresponding to playwright release v1.34.3 using WebKit 16.4.

Since WebKit support is experimental, this may be a feature request rather than a bug.
