SEB does not honor beforeunload event handler

Most browsers allow to display a warning message when the user navigates away from a form that has unsaved changes. This functionality is available in SEB for Windows, but does not work on MacOS. As a consequence, users might lose unsaved changes in a Moodle quiz as described in MDL-79324.

The way that functionality is implemented in Moodle, it works with other browsers on Mac (Chrome, Firefox, Safari) and with SEB on Windows, so I'd argue it is not an implementation error on the side of the Moodle devs.
