Feature

Request for number of steps indicator for the js regex engine

unlike other regex engine flavours, the js engine does not show the number of steps taken to traverse a string with the provided regex (alongside the number of matches and milliseconds)

This piece of information is particularly useful in comparing pairs of regex solutions

and for optimization purposes

in settings, no effects on js

Just FYI @Davydx7 #1276 - I have not kept up with new developments on the browser side.

This can't be done due to limitations in the javascript engine. I will update the setting to reflect this.
