global in not defined

this line will cause error in browsers(no webpack bundled). would it be possible to change to:

(typeof global !== 'undefined' && global['PREVENT_CODEMIRROR_RENDER'] === true)

I use this package with Electron, and I was able to workaround it with the following: https://github.com/scniro/react-codemirror2/issues/66#issuecomment-898400845

haha, I used the same workaround 😄.

but better to fix it in the package: https://github.com/scniro/react-codemirror2/pull/260

in esbuild either use:

define: {
    'global': 'window'
}

or a patch see: https://github.com/scniro/react-codemirror2/issues/259#issuecomment-1405396013

Hi @elsigh @scniro, great that this was fixed! Could you release a new version to npm? I'm still running into this issue with the latest published version.

@marcelgerber no they wont ^^

im now using a patch like:

fixes https://github.com/scniro/react-codemirror2/pull/260#issuecomment-1023202972
this bug has been fixed and merged to the source code of react-codemirror2,
but the maintainers said that they won't release it, because they are not using the project anymore.

@mhsdesign yes, I'm using a similar patch now (through yarn 3).

it's nice that this is easily possible, but on the other hand it would be even nicer if I didn't have to do that, and could just run the code that's in this repo already, but just doesn't get pushed to npm.

Thank you nonetheless :)
