fix!: refactor custom query handler API (#9078)
This PR removes the deprecated query selector API from the `puppeteer`
instance. Direct imports of the query selector API have also been
deprecated and users are now expected to use the static methods defined
on `Puppeteer`.

# Puppeteer.registerCustomQueryHandler() method
Registers a [custom query handler](./puppeteer.customqueryhandler.md).
**Signature:**
```typescript
class Puppeteer {
static registerCustomQueryHandler(
name: string,
queryHandler: CustomQueryHandler
): void;
}
```
## Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
| ------------ | ------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| name | string | The name that the custom query handler will be registered under. |
| queryHandler | [CustomQueryHandler](./puppeteer.customqueryhandler.md) | The [custom query handler](./puppeteer.customqueryhandler.md) to register. |
**Returns:**
void
## Remarks
After registration, the handler can be used everywhere where a selector is expected by prepending the selection string with `<name>/`. The name is only allowed to consist of lower- and upper case latin letters.
## Example
```
puppeteer.registerCustomQueryHandler('text', { … });
const aHandle = await page.$('text/…');
```
