Describe the bug

On Chromium response.status_text is always empty.

If you go to https://stackoverflow.com/404 in stock FF, CR, and WK, and then run: fetch("https://stackoverflow.com/404").then(r => console.log(r.statusText)) you’ll see Firefox is the only one to have statusText set to “Not Found” in this case (site doesn’t set it explicitly), so I believe Playwright’s behavior here is appropriate.
