Allow monaco-editor to work propertly with Jest - #109833

Conversation
In Node.js environments where Jest is run, `global` is already an existing variable. Using `const` to redeclare it causes an error and therefore makes it impossible to run any `monaco-editor` related tests to run with Jest. Changing this line from `const` to `var` doesn't cause this issue.

Alternatively, it would also be worthwhile calling this variable something other than |
var instead of const for the global variable

monaco-editorin GitLab, and in order to upgrade it to the latest version and make it work with Jest, the only solution was to patch it usingpatch-package. The patch solution doesn't scale so well.Here's a bit more info: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/46436#note_438312326
