[🚀 Feature]: deno support

[caperaven]

Feature and motivation

We are moving away from nodejs to deno. Selenium is important too us and it would be great to have deno support as an alternative to nodejs. I have tried to use the CDN https://www.skypack.dev/view/selenium-webdriver But I still get an error of http being required

/*

• [Package Error] [Package Error] "http" does not exist. (Imported by "selenium-webdriver:14:7").
• The package "selenium-webdriver:14:7" depends on this Node.js built-in module.
• Node.js built-in modules (like "fs", "http", etc.) are Node.js-specific, and do
• not exist in non-Node environments like Deno or the web browser. Skypack CDN polyfills
• most of these modules for you automatically, but this one could not be polyfilled.
• How to fix:
• • Let the package author know that you'd like to run their package in the browser.
• • Use https://skypack.dev/ to find a web-friendly alternative to find another package. */

throw new Error("[Package Error] "http" does not exist. (Imported by "selenium-webdriver:14:7")."); export default null;

I have posted a request on deno side for compat mode to include http but in reality if would far better to just have selenium work directly with deno instead of using compat mode.

Usage example

Testing UI in a deno environment void of nodejs
