Notable Changes
Removed legacy navigation runner
The --legacy-navigation flag on the CLI, the legacyNavigation() function in the Node API, and the "Legacy navigation" checkbox in the DevTools panel have all been removed.
New DevtoolsLog and Trace artifacts
For custom audits, the devtoolsLogs['defaultPass'] and traces['defaultPass'] artifacts have been deprecated in favor of DevtoolsLog and Trace. See our plugin docs for example usage.
devtoolsLogs and traces still exist for compatibility purposes but will be removed in a future breaking release.
