Resolves #8482

Description

What is the purpose of this pull request?

This pull request implements the RFC proposing the addition of the symbol/to-string-tag package.

The package is modeled after existing symbol utilities in the repository, including:

  • symbol/has-instance
  • symbol/iterator
  • symbol/async-iterator
  • symbol/is-concat-spreadable

The new package exports Symbol.toStringTag when available in the current environment.

Additional implementation details include:

  • copying one of the existing symbol packages as a template
  • renaming the package directory and files accordingly
  • replacing identifiers throughout the package
    (e.g., has-instanceto-string-tag, HasInstanceSymbolToStringTagSymbol)
  • ensuring the copyright year is 2025
  • updating descriptions based on MDN documentation for Symbol.toStringTag
  • updating examples to reflect the symbol's intended usage
  • running tests, benchmarks, and examples to verify correctness
  • checking for any copy-paste errors
