Make the WebGL terminal renderer the default #118064

@Tyriar

Description

@Tyriar

Part of #106202

We should also improve the fallback logic to do this:

  • Try webgl
  • If it threw an exception, try canvas
  • If frame rendering averages > 50ms (existing detection), use DOM

We will keep the canvas renderer around for now mainly because Safari doesn't support webgl2 and can evaluate whether we want to remove it again at a later date.
