This patch implements a new image comparison function, codenamed
"ssim-cie94". The goal of the new comparison function is to cancel out
browser non-determenistic rendering.
To use the new comparison function:
```ts
await expect(page).toHaveScreenshot({
comparator: 'ssim-cie94',
});
```
As of Nov 30, 2022, we identified the following sources of
non-determenistic rendering for Chromium:
- Anti-aliasing for certain shapes might be different due to the
way skia rasterizes certain shapes.
- Color blending might be different on `x86` and `aarch64`
architectures.
The new function employs a few heuristics to fight these
differences.
Consider two non-equal image pixels `(r1, g1, b1)` and `(r2, g2, b2)`:
1. If the [CIE94] metric is less then 1.0, then we consider these pixels
**EQUAL**. (The value `1.0` is the [just-noticeable difference] for
[CIE94].). Otherwise, proceed to next step.
1. If all the 8 neighbors of the first pixel match its color, or
if the 8 neighbors of the second pixel match its color, then these
pixels are **DIFFERENT**. (In case of anti-aliasing, some of the
direct neighbors have to be blended up or down.) Otherwise, proceed
to next step.
1. If SSIM in some locality around the different pixels is more than
0.99, then consider this pixels to be **EQUAL**. Otherwise, mark them
as **DIFFERENT**. (Local SSIM for anti-aliased pixels turns out to be
very close to 1.0).

This patch introduces the following commands:
- `npx playwright docker build` that builds a VRT docker image
locally that is based off the `mcr.microsoft.com/playwright:jammy`
- `npx playwright docker start` that launches a docker container with
browsers.
- `npx playwright docker stop` that stops given docker container.
- `npx playwright docker test` that runs all the tests inside a
launched docker container.
This allows us to use the full retry logic of rimraf in the `onexit` handler.
Note this is already covered by failing on Windows test
`should remove temp dir on process.exit`.
feat: support experimental doc entries
- Params/options/members are marked as experimental in the docs.
- `experimental.d.ts` is generated that contains all types and
includes experimental features.
- `experimental.d.ts` is references in our tests so that we
can test experimental features.
- `fonts` option is restored as experimental.
