Description
Edge on Android allows developers to set sidePanel.setPanelBehavior({openPanelOnActionClick: true}). However no panel is ever opened thus locking users completely out of the extension. If Edge on Android does not support opening a sidePanel, setPanelBehavior should not allow setting openPanelOnActionClick to true, or Edge should ignore this setting.
