Description:

• What you did:
  Updated a dependency and tried to run unit tests with default jest configuration. Subdependency ipfs-http-client@40.1.0 updated to ipfs-http-client@46.0.0 and was imported require('ipfs-http-client') but not instantiated in tests.

  jest --env=node works as a workaround, if you don't need DOM

• What happened:
  Tests crash on initialization. Global XMLHttpRequest is defined (so it uses ipfs-utils/src/http/fetch-browser.js), but global Request isn't (throws ReferenceError).

• What you expected to happen
  Expected ipfs-http-client to continue working with jest/jsdom

Steps to reproduce the error:

newfolder
npm init -y
npm i ipfs-http-client@46.0.0
npm i jest
echo "require('ipfs-http-client'); test('a', () => {});" > a.test.js

npx jest   # [--env=jsdom] 
#> ReferenceError: Request is not defined
#  ipfs-utils/src/http/fetch-browser.js:95

npx jest --env=node
#> Success
