i'd prefer not to re-export this.

This will mean that in the browser, however, a symbol will be registered and usable. it seems to me that util.inspect's custom symbol should only ever work in node.

Also, this logic only helps in node >= 10.12; the dependency is still required for node 6.6-10.11, so i don’t see the value in this added complexity.

Node 10.12 and newer registers the
util.inspect.customsymbol asnodejs.util.inspect.custom, making it possible to useSymbol.for('nodejs.util.inspect.custom')to get the equivalentutil.inspect.customsymbol without depending onutil.
