[webkit-dev] Filtering results on wpt.fyi, Safari-specific failures

Neat.

I see some obvious areas for focus, where Safari fails lots of tests that the other browser don’t. 

For context, I tried looking at this view, which shows all tests that Safari and Firefox pass with Safari results regardless of result:
https://wpt.fyi/results/?label=master&label=experimental&product=chrome%5Btaskcluster%5D&product=firefox%5Btaskcluster%5D&product=safari%5Bazure%5D&aligned&q=%28chrome%3Apass%7Cchrome%3Aok%29+%28firefox%3Apass%7Cfirefox%3Aok%29 <https://wpt.fyi/results/?label=master&label=experimental&product=chrome[taskcluster]&product=firefox[taskcluster]&product=safari[azure]&aligned&q=(chrome:pass|chrome:ok)+(firefox:pass|firefox:ok)>

I noticed some puzzling results there: Safari passes all the ambient-light and bluetooth tests that Chrome and Firefox do, despite not supporting these standards at all. (For that matter I’m not sure Firefox supports these specs either.) Not sure if harness problem, or dubious tests that don’t actually test the standard.

Regards,
Maciej
