This PR changes the meaning for the headless flag. Previously, headless=true launched the old headless mode also known as chrome-headless-shell. After this change, the new headless module will be launched instead.

To migrate:

  1. if you were using 'headless=true' and want to use chrome-headless-shell, change to headless: 'chrome-headless-shell'.
  2. if you were using 'headless=new', change to headless: true

This PR changes the meaning for the `headless` flag.
Previously, `headless=true` would launch the old headless
mode also known as `chrome-headless-shell`. After this change,
the new headless module will be launched instead.

To migrate:

1) if you were using 'headless=true' and want to use `chrome-headless-shell`,
change to `headless: 'chrome-headless-shell'`.
2) if you were using 'headless=new', change to `headless: true`

I think it's not user-friendly first to suggest users to change their codes to headless: 'new' and then break it soon after. If I knew this beforehand, I would rather keep my old headless: true to avoid changing it everywhere twice.

Maybe it's too late for this time, and further changes might cause more confusion. But when there are similar changes next time, I suggest that a better decision could be made. e.g. Set it to boolean | 'new' | 'shell' in the early version, and then change the semantic of true in the next version, but keep both 'new' and 'shell'. Or at least in the warning remind that 'new' would be removed in future and suggest setting PUPPETEER_DISABLE_HEADLESS_WARNING instead.

@ouuan thanks for the feedback. Note that it is a breaking semver release, so we have done breaking changes to not support new anymore. Note that it was a mechanism for an early testing and the warning always mentioned that headless: true will become the new headless mode by default.

Yes, but it did not mention that 'new' will be removed.

Note that it is a breaking semver release, so we have done breaking changes to not support new anymore.

A breaking change is necessary to change the semantic of true. But the removal of 'new' is not necessary.

This is a major version bump that requires two changes on our side:

- The new headless mode is now the default, so we can remove our
  transformation code (see puppeteer/puppeteer#11815).
- The `page.waitForTimeout` API is removed. Sadly we still used it in
  the integration tests (but fortunately much less than before we worked
  on fixing intermittent failures), so until we remove the final
  occurrences we provide an implementation ourselves (see
  puppeteer/puppeteer#11780).

Puppeteer 22 drops support for Node 16 and requires Node 18+ [1].

The main change for us is how `headless` is configured. [2] The new
headless mode is now enabled by default in Puppeteer, corresponding
to `headless: true` instead of `headless: 'new'`.

We already opted-in to this before in grunt-contrib-qunit so it is not
relevant for grunt-contrib-qunit release notes.

This also includes "roll to Chrome 125", from puppeteer 22.10.0 [3].
