See [forge#68150](https://forge.typo3.org/issues/68150)

## Description

The initialization of the `$GLOBALS['CLIENT']` variable has been dropped.

## Impact

Extensions that use `$GLOBALS['CLIENT']` will cause a PHP notice or may not function properly any more.

## Affected Installations

Installations with extensions that use `$GLOBALS['CLIENT']` are affected.

## Migration

Extensions can still use `GeneralUtility::clientInfo()` API to retrieve the same information.
