Description

In the Readme it mentions:
> Due to restrictions in iOS saveAs opens in a new window instead of downloading

But this is not the behavior seen in FileSaver.js version 2.0.5 and iOS 14.x. Instead the file is opened in the same tab, causing the user to potentially lose what they were doing before saving the file.
