🤔 this would be a breaking change (which means losing 30% of users, see #1065) |

thanks for the review!
maybe I'm misunderstanding what you mean by that, but there's https://github.com/webrtcHacks/adapter/blob/main/src/js/common_shim.js#L356 and #1082 which details an uncaught (by adapter) bug related to the version parsing for Safari 12. |

@fippo was not including this in 9.0.0 an oversight or are you not planning to merge this altogether? |

Description
This PR changes the version extraction for Safari to look at the actual Safari version instead of the WebKit version.
Minor versions (e.g.
10.3) get parsed as float in order to keep straight forward version comparison as before.In case there would be a patch version defined in the ua string (e.g.
10.3.4) the patch version gets dropped.The oldest Safari versions I could find still work with that approach:
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac 05 X 10_6_8; en-us) ApplewebKit/531.22.7 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.5 Safari/531.22.7Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 7_1 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/537.51.2 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/7.0 Mobile/11D167 Safari/9537.53Purpose
fixes #1082
Safari has stopped updating WebKit versions in the user agent string. E.g. Safari 16.3 still shows
AppleWebKit/605.1.15.
