/**
 * Fail the build when the bundle uses a JS feature our oldest supported browser
 * cannot parse (#2971).
 *
 * Why this exists as a grep rather than a build target: Vite's `build.target`
 * only governs *syntax lowering*. esbuild does not rewrite regular expressions,
 * so a lookbehind assertion - unsupported before Safari 16.4 - builds silently
 * under `safari15`, `safari16.0` and `es2020` alike (measured, all three). That
 * is exactly how #2971 shipped: `remark-gfm` pulled a lookbehind regex literal
 * into the entry chunk, iOS 16.0-16.3 refused to compile the module, and every
 * page rendered as a blank white screen from v1.2.5 until it was found in the
 * field two months later.
 *
 * A regex literal is validated when its module is *compiled*, so one of these
 * anywhere in the entry chunk takes down the entire app, not just the feature
 * that pulled it in. There is no graceful degradation to fall back on, which is
 * why this is a hard build failure and not a warning.
 *
 * BASELINE: Safari 16.0 / iOS 16.0. Raising it is a product decision - if you
 * do, drop the entries that the new floor supports rather than deleting the
 * check.
 *
 * Scope: parse-time failures only. Runtime APIs (`Object.groupBy`,
 * `Promise.withResolvers`, ...) break one feature rather than the whole bundle
 * and are better caught by real-browser testing, so they are deliberately not
 * listed here.
