naorpeled 5249a7e4e8 perf: trim bundled.js to the 2.14.1 polyfill set, fix stale docs
- Exclude the 10 core-js 3.0 modules with no counterpart in the
  @babel/polyfill set every released bundled.js shipped (concat/splice
  species fixes, Array#flat, Object.fromEntries, the __defineGetter__
  family, NodeList#forEach): 156.1 -> 153.2 kB (49.3 -> 48.4 kB gzip).
  babel rejects unknown exclude names, so a core-js rename fails the build.
- terser `passes: 5`, where output stops shrinking: es5.js 7.52 -> 7.49 kB
  gzip.
- New test: bundled.js must not install polyfills no release ever shipped
  (fails on the previous master build, passes on 2.14.1 and this one).
- README no longer claims named imports shrink the bundle; AGENTS.md
  describes the tsdown build and four-artifact acceptance tests;
  CONTRIBUTING points at the existing lint:check script.

## Branches
The project runs Git-flow, where the `master` branch is for development and `production` is for production.
In a nutshell, if you are proposing a new feature that adds totally new functionality to `bowser`, it's better to branch from `master` and make a PR pointing back to `master` as well.
If it's a small hot-fix, an improvement to the docs, or added support for a new browser/OS/platform/etc, then it's better to branch from `production` and make a PR pointing back to `production`.
Following these simple rules will really help maintain the repo! Thanks ❤️
## Adding Browser Support and Tests
See the list in `test/acceptance/useragentstrings.yml` with example user agents and their expected `bowser` object.
Whenever you add support for new browsers or notice a bug / mismatch, please update the list and check if all tests are still passing. Also, make sure to keep the list of browser aliases up-to-date in `src/constants.js`.
For creating aliases, keep the following guidelines in mind:
- use only lowercase letters for names
- replace special characters such as space and dashes by underscore
- whenever possible drop the word `browser` from the original browser name
- always check for possible duplicates
- aliases are supposed to also be a shorter version of the original name
Examples:
`Opera Coast` --> `opera_coast`
`UC Browser` --> `uc`
`SeaMonkey` --> `seamonkey`
## Testing
If you'd like to contribute a change to `bowser`, modify the files in `src/`, and run the following (you'll need `node` + `npm` installed):
``` sh
$ npm install
$ npm run build #build
$ npm test #run tests
$ npm run lint:check #check lint rules
```
