api.ScreenOrientation.lock - not actually supported by Android WebView

What type of issue is this?

Incorrect support data (example: BrowserX says "86" but support was added in "40")

What information was incorrect, unhelpful, or incomplete?

api.ScreenOrientation.lock (and unlock) are claimed to be supported by Android WebView since 38, but are not actually supported.

(also WebView 38 doesn't actually exist - the Chromium-based WebView only exists for 30, 33, 40, and 42 onward)

What browsers does this problem apply to, if applicable?

Chromium (Chrome, Edge 79+, Opera, Samsung Internet)

What did you expect to see?

No support for lock/unlock on WebView

(possibly with a note that WebView 40 exposes the API but it does not actually work; it is no longer exposed in WebView 42+)

Did you test this? If so, how?

devtools console on webview 118; screen.orientation only has angle, onchange, type properties.

(also I reviewed the chromium change that correctly hid the API in webview 42) 😄

MDN metadata

Start with the compatibility-data entry for api.ScreenOrientation.lock, then compare its Android WebView data with the Chromium source link and linked Chromium bugs. Update lock and unlock so WebView support is not claimed, including the reported version details, and verify the entry matches the behavior described in the issue.
