Missing / Incorrect Definition

navigator.connection is missing after updating Typescript from 4.5 to 5.3. I checked the other versions and it seems it got removed since version 4.8. However, I couldn't find this change in the breaking changes docs.

Sample Code

const c = navigator.connection;

MDN says this is only supported by Chromium-based browsers.

We need to revisit the "two browser support" policy in light of Firefox losing ~all of its share, Opera going Chromium, and Safari continuing to be the laggard even in the face of de jure standardized features.
