What happened?

With the change here - #11790. got was upgraded from 12 to 14 (sindresorhus/got#2313). In got version 14, it changed it's node engine support. This was a major version change for got but not a major version change for webdriver. This should be a major version change for webdriver if dependencies are now going to change node engine requirements

What is your expected behavior?

Installs continue to work without needing to change node version

How to reproduce the bug.

Have node 18 installed, do an npm i of newest webdriver

Relevant log output
