### What happened?

Run Lighthouse performance report on the attached HTML file.

In the Diagnostics there will a record called "Avoid non-composited animations 1 animated element found" -> "Animations which are not composited can be janky and increase CLS. " -> "Unsupported CSS Property: --variable-rotate-z"

### What did you expect?

`--variable-rotate-z` is defined with @property at-rule and this CSS variable will be used in transform property, so it I think this will be composited animation.
