From the WHATWG console spec:
> For historical web-compatibility reasons, the namespace object for
> console must have as its [[Prototype]] an empty object, created as
> if by ObjectCreate(%ObjectPrototype%), instead of %ObjectPrototype%.
Since in Node.js, the Console constructor has been exposed through
require('console'), we need to keep the Console constructor but
we cannot actually use `new Console` to construct the global console.
This patch changes the prototype chain of the global console object,
so the console.Console.prototype is not in the global console prototype
chain anymore.
```
const proto = Object.getPrototypeOf(global.console);
// Before this patch
proto.constructor === global.console.Console
// After this patch
proto.constructor === Object
```
But, we still maintain that
```
global.console instanceof global.console.Console
```
through a custom Symbol.hasInstance function of Console that tests
for a special symbol kIsConsole for backwards compatibility.
This fixes a case in the console Web Platform Test that we commented
out.
