/**
 *
 * Inject a snippet of JavaScript into the page for execution in the context of the currently selected
 * frame using the given element as scope, because it is on the element scope it means that WebdriverIO will
 * automatically wait for the element to exist before executing the script.
 * The executed script is assumed to be synchronous and the result of evaluating the script is returned to
 * the client.
 *
 * The script argument defines the script to execute in the form of a function body. The value returned by
 * that function will be returned to the client. The function will be invoked with the provided args array
 * and the values may be accessed via the arguments object in the order specified.
 *
 * Arguments may be any JSON-primitive, array, or JSON object. JSON objects that define a WebElement
 * reference will be converted to the corresponding DOM element. Likewise, any WebElements in the script
 * result will be returned to the client as WebElement JSON objects.
 *
 * <example>
    :execute.js
    it('should wait for the element to exist, then executes javascript on the page with the element as first argument', async () => {
        const text = await $('div').execute((elem, a, b, c, d) => {
            return elem.textContent + a + b + c + d
        }, 1, 2, 3, 4);
        // node.js context - client and console are available
        console.log(text); // outputs "Hello World1234"
    });
 * </example>
 *
 * @param {String|Function} script     The script to execute.
 * @param {*=}              arguments  script arguments
 *
 * @return {*}             The script result.
