James RussoandClaude Opus 4.8 c0c3abf0f1 fix(producer): harden capture against timeouts, transient tab deaths, and OOM (#1842)
Four independent capture-infra hardening changes for the P2-5 failure bucket (~15K err / ~7K users):

- protocolTimeout auto-scales by device-scaled output area (applied before probe launch, since it's immutable post ppt.launch()).
- Single bounded transient retry (MAX_TRANSIENT_CAPTURE_RETRIES=1) on Target closed / Page crashed in the parallel disk-capture path; abort short-circuits before retry.
- Narrow OOM classification (Set maximum size exceeded etc., disjoint from transient) → actionable guidance naming output dims.
- StreamingEncoder.getExitError() threads FFmpeg's real exit reason into frame-0 encoder-death errors.

Render-reliability workstream P2-5. Success measured on PostHog dashboard 1783183.

* the write window can observe a truncated frame. Give each concurrent
* render pipeline its own `extractCacheDir`, or gate with an external mutex.

* produce spurious cache hits if a source file is overwritten within the
