Document reportError as an option for reporting in browsers

Problem Statement

I think the global reportError function could be an idiomatic way to report errors to Sentry from JavaScript, if it is not too general for your use case. I don't find much talk about this function on the webs, but it has been available across major browsers for some time.

Solution Brainstorm

The Capturing Errors and Events page of the docs could have a small section that mentions reportError as an alternative.

Seems like a good idea, but captureException has some logic to it like getting the current scope. I guess using reportError alone would not work with the SDK and we would have to explicitly support it. Or how would you want it to be used? :)

Just putting this here for reference: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/reportError

However, we should verify the behavior of using this in an integration test. It could be that it just bubbles up and works OOTB.

I believe it works out of the box and from Sentry's perspective it is just an unhandled error event.

Yeah, we will add an integration test for this 👍
