• Compat data targets improvements:
  • React Native from 0.70 shipped with Hermes as the default engine. However, bundled Hermes versions differ from standalone Hermes releases. So added react-native target for React Native with bundled Hermes.
  • According to the documentation, Oculus Browser was renamed to Meta Quest Browser, so oculus target was renamed to quest.
  • opera_mobile target name is confusing since it contains data for the Chromium-based Android version, but iOS Opera is Safari-based. So opera_mobile target was renamed to opera-android.
  • android target name is also confusing for someone - that means Android WebView, some think thinks that it's Chrome for Android, but they have some differences. For avoiding confusion, added chrome-android target.
  • For consistency with two previous cases, added firefox-android target.
  • For avoiding breaking changes, the oculus and opera_mobile fields are available in the compat data till the next major release.

• Smoothed behavior of some conflicting proposals
• Removed some generic behavior (like @@species pattern) of some .prototype methods from the new collections methods proposal and the Array deduplication proposal that most likely will not be implemented since it contradicts the current TC39 policy
• Added pure version of the Number constructor, #1154, #1155, thanks @trosos
