[Browser TelemetryReporter] Report common browser properties (browserName, browserVersion, etc)

[jramsay]

Does the browser telemetryReporter already include common browser properties that every extension can consume?

[ex] browserName, browserVersion, hostLocation (excluding subdomain), etc.

I'm currently adding it as follows from our extension but it would be great if this was built-in:

import { detect } from 'detect-browser'; const info = detect(); const version = (info && info.version) || ''); const name = (info && info.name) || '',);

We do not currently include that information as we want to keep what we collect at a minimum. We may add user agent though because VS Code core collects that and will provide us at least with a browser type

No plans to add any of these in the future due to privacy concerns on our end regarding injecting this data into every extension that consumes this module.
