Description

When detecting polyfills for modern build, plugin-legacy was lowering the code as @babel/preset-env does.
This PR changes that part to use babel-plugin-polyfill-corejs3 and babel-plugin-polyfill-regenerator, which is used internally by @babel/preset-env, so that the lowering is not done.

I tested this PR with https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon and it reduced the build time from 27.25s to 24.17s.
