Benchmark: JS Cloning benchmarking

JS Cloning benchmarking (version: 0)

Comparing performance of: Spread operator (...) vs JSON.parse(JSON.stringify()) vs Custom function vs Lodash.cloneDeep() vs jQuery.extend(true) vs structuredClone() By cloning a complex object with nested specific objects (ArrayBuffer, Set, Map, RegExp, etc.)
