Description
Now that we support matching uncontrolled Client environments it seems we should reasonably be able to get a Client object for a ServiceWorker. I believe the spec mostly already supports this as it doesn't explicitly exclude ServiceWorker environments. We just need to add a "serviceworker" enum value to ClientType.

Research direction
Start by locating the ClientType enum and the Clients.matchAll behavior in the ServiceWorker specification. Confirm how uncontrolled Client environments are handled, then add the proposed "serviceworker" enum value and verify that the specification consistently permits ServiceWorker environments.
