-// Chrome uses host `127.0.0.1` in the browser's websocket endpoint URL while
-// Firefox uses `localhost`, which before Node.js 17 also resolved to the IPv4
-// address `127.0.0.1` by Node.js' DNS resolver. However, this behavior changed
-// in Node.js 17 where the default is to prefer an IPv6 address if one is
-// offered (which varies based on the OS and/or how the `localhost` hostname
-// resolution is configured), so it can now also resolve to `::1`. This causes
-// Firefox to not start anymore since it doesn't bind on the `::1` interface.
-// To avoid this, we switch Node.js' DNS resolver back to preferring IPv4
-// since we connect to a local browser anyway. Only do this for Node.js versions
-// that actually have this API since it got introduced in Node.js 14.18.0 and
-// it's not relevant for older versions anyway.
