Automatically prefer offline if connected to a metered network

[ChocolateLoverRaj]

When I'm connected to my phone's hotspot, I would like to automatically have the --prefer-offline behavior to reduce mobile data usage. On my computer it's called a metered connection. I don't know how to programmatically check if the internet connection is 'metered', but it would be cool if this was a Pnpm feature.

I found out how to programmatically check if a connection is metered - https://gist.github.com/nijave/d657fb4cdb518286942f6c2dd933b472:

[void][Windows.Networking.Connectivity.NetworkInformation, Windows, ContentType = WindowsRuntime]
$cost = [Windows.Networking.Connectivity.NetworkInformation]::GetInternetConnectionProfile().GetConnectionCost()
$cost.ApproachingDataLimit -or $cost.OverDataLimit -or $cost.Roaming -or $cost.BackgroundDataUsageRestricted -or ($cost.NetworkCostType -ne "Unrestricted")

Then I realized that example uses a Windows API: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/uwp/api/windows.networking.connectivity.networkcosttype?view=winrt-22000. I'm guessing that it is possible to create a Node.js binding for that.
