Description
This is more of a runtime issue but I'm still confused why/how undici requires SharedArrayBuffer.
The problem occurs with:
require('undici')

Research direction
Reproduce the failure with require('undici') in the affected Node.js runtime. Start at node:internal/worker and node:worker_threads in the stack trace, then inspect undici's loading entry point. Done means the runtime compatibility cause and supported runtime conditions are established, with require('undici') no longer failing where support is claimed.
