Attaching the Unity profiler to WebGL builds on Windows 11

One of the biggest pains in Unity when developing for WebGL is that if you want to profile it, you have to use the "Build and Run" menu option to do it, while it works, it can be very inconvenient and waste a lot of time recompiling everything, in this brief tutorial I present a way of attaching the profiler without having to recompile everything.

Note: This entire procedure was only tested with Unity 2021.3.29f1. The procedure might be the same in newer versions, but in case it's not, refer below for how I discovered it for this version.
