Drop aliasing global to globalThis in extented compatibility-mode #3864
Description
What?
As of #3456 the only difference between base and extended compatibility-mode is that extended adds an alias for global that points to globalThis.
This only exists as this was what core-js did and when it was dropped it was readded in #1845.
I don't remember if we had a particular user that complaint about this or not, but it has been a few years and globalThis is pretty much everywhere.
This also has been known to be used as a test if you are running in a browser or NodeJS like environment - which doesn't usually work great with k6.
Solution
Just stop aliasing it - making base and extented the same.
Counter points
The support for this is literally 3 lines
Lines 387 to 392 in 111985b
it doesn't really add much
Arguably removing this will require us to explain why extended and base are the same thing 😅
This being used
The only thing I know about that this is being used for is k6chaijs which is due to dependancy.
https://github.com/chaijs/type-detect which is part of chaijs is using it instead of globalThis a patch for this has been done years ago, but no new version has been released in 7 years.
chaijs/type-detect#146 asked for it to be bumped few years ago, and it might be good idea for us to go ahead and start this rolling
I would argue that this is blocking this specifically from going forward, but once this is done we can think about it more.
