Description

Since we migrated to Gatsby V3 from V2 we have seen that a lot of our visitors are getting the following error performance.mark is not a function when visiting our site. It seems to be that performance.mark was introduced in Safari 10.2 (https://caniuse.com/?search=performance.mark)

Reproduction Link

https://github.com/gatsbyjs/gatsby-starter-hello-world

Steps to Reproduce

1. Visit a gatsby V3 site with Safari 10.1 or lower
2. Watch the error in the console …

Expected Result

Before calling performance.mark gatsby should check if that function exists (or add a polyfill for it), i.e not to throw an error when it doesn’t exist

Actual Result

An error is thrown
