Describe the Problem

When importing Ether's (ethers.esm.js) on environment (eg, service worker) that has not defined window, importing fails. This is because line 4864 is

var __awaiter = (window && window.__awaiter) || function (thisArg, _arguments, P, generator) {

I believe these checks should check typeof window !== 'undefined' instead of for window. Other alternative would be to to use globalThis and not window.
