Subject: [PATCH 1/2] doc: mention constructor comparison in
 assert.deepStrictEqual

Updated `assert.deepStrictEqual` docs to explicitly mention that object constructors are included in the comparison.
This clarifies behavior consistent with `util.isDeepStrictEqual` and helps prevent confusion when comparing derived objects or proxy instances.
