Which problem is this PR solving?
The issue being fixed is an error being thrown when trying to export logs from code running in a web worker. I noticed that the exporter is using the 'window' object instead of globalThis (or the _globalThis instance provided by the otlp lib). The 'window' is not available to code running in a worker, only to the main app thread.
Please see this issue #3991
Fixes #3991
Short description of the changes
Replaced the usage of 'window' with the '_globalThis' instance exposed by @opentelemetry/core
Type of change
Please delete options that are not relevant.
How Has This Been Tested?
In order to reproduce the issue, try to export logs from code running in a web worker. You would get an error indicating that 'window' is not defined.
I have a patched version replacing 'window' with 'globalThis' in which the issue no longer occurs.
I also ran the 'compile' and 'test' scripts before and after my changes and observed the same results.
