fix(core): determine required DOMParser feature availability (#36578) (#36578)

Verify that HTML parsing is supported in addition to DOMParser existence.
This maybe wasn't as important before when DOMParser was used just as a
fallback on Firefox, but now that DOMParser is the default choice, we need
to be more accurate.
