So far, we've been running browser tests on GitHub Actions in Chrome
and Firefox. Regular Safari is not available in GitHub Actions but
Playwright WebKit comes close to a dev version of Safari.

With this change, our GitHub CI & local test runs will invoke tests on
all actively developed browser engines on all PRs.

Also, our GitHub Actions browser tests are now running on Node.js 18.

Detection of the Playwright WebKit browser in support unit tests is done
by checking if the `test_browser` query parameter is set to `"Playwright"`;
this is a `karma-webkit-launcher` feature. Detecting that browser via
user agent as we normally do is hard as the UA on Linux is very similar
to a real Safari one but it actually uses a newer version of the engine.

In addition, we now allow to pass custom browsers when one needs it;
e.g., to run the tests in all three engines on Linux/macOS, run:
```
grunt && BROWSERS=ChromeHeadless,FirefoxHeadless,WebkitHeadless grunt karma:main
```

Closes gh-5190

(cherry picked from commit b02a257)

PR jquerygh-5190 added support for running tests on Playwright WebKit
in CI. For efficiency reasons, Playwright dependencies are only
installed for the `test:browser` npm script. However, that same
script is also used for Firefox ESR testing.

This change makes Playwright dependencies installed only for cases
where `WebKitHeadless` exists on the list of tested browsers.
