Research direction

Start by reading the linked Chrome soft navigations experiment, then inspect Browsertime's existing navigation and performance-measurement entry points. The issue names no files or tests, so first identify where Chrome navigation metrics are handled and how FP/FCP support affects the scope. Done means Browsertime supports soft navigations once the referenced metrics are available.
