Jinjing 642607bfa7 feat(diagnostics): name the code driving a React commit cascade (#16730)
* feat(diagnostics): name the code driving a React commit cascade

React #185 reports blame whichever component dispatched after the
root-global counter tripped. react-update-depth-attribution already tells
the report that boundary_id names a bystander; nothing recorded what the
real driver was.

Count commits through react-dom's devtools commit hook — the only
per-commit seam that survives minification. Profiler's onRender is
compiled out of the production bundle, and a dependency-less root layout
effect fires per render of its own component, not per commit (measured: a
root effect saw 1 of 11 commits a leaf drove).

Mirror React's own reset rule rather than a time window: a commit that
leaves no sync lanes pending ends the cascade, and a different root
restarts it. The steady-state cost is a mask, a compare and an increment,
with no clock read and no allocation. Stack sampling arms only once a
cascade is already deep, so ordinary work never pays for it.

* fix(diagnostics): remove the install-order trap and guard the write path

Adversarial and perf review of the cascade diagnostic:

The install-order ratchet guarded the wrong thing. The observer self-installs
at the bottom of its own module, so it only ran after its transitive graph
evaluated — one new import reaching react-dom would have killed the
diagnostic in production with every test green. The entries now import the
import-free shim instead, which only has to make the global exist; wrapping
the callback is timing-independent because react-dom re-reads it per commit.

The store write probe called the sampler unguarded, so a throw there dropped
the write on the app's universal write path. Guarded; the try/catch measured
free at +0.005ns.

Report the frames that name the driver instead of capturing eight and
reporting one, arm the self-check on the paths where install fails, bind the
sample cap to the write count rather than a V8-only API, and stop defining
the devtools global for every test file to serve one.

The cascadeRoot comment claimed a strong reference cannot retain; a WeakRef
probe disproved it. It is still not a leak — the next non-cascading commit
clears the slot — so the comment now says that instead.

* test(diagnostics): close the ratchet holes guarding the cascade hook

Adversarial review loop 2:

The install-order ratchet only saw imports whose `from` shared a line with
the keyword, so a multi-line `import { createRoot } from 'react-dom/client'`
in the shim passed it — and that is the one edit that kills the diagnostic in
production. 43% of files in this directory use the multi-line form. Scan the
shim source directly as well as walking the graph.

The 4000-char budget for the driver frames is bought by the key ending in
`stack`, but the only test asserting that emitted its own literal key, so
renaming the real one truncated the frames with the suite green. Assert the
name the renderer actually emits.

Also correct the comment on the `installed` placement: the self-check never
reads that flag, it arms because it sits outside the try.

* test(diagnostics): stop the shim ratchet firing on prose

Adversarial review loop 3 caught two flaws in the guards added last commit.

The source-scan regex used an unbounded `[\s\S]*?` after an anchor that also
matched the shim's own `export type`, so it degenerated to "does the word
`from` appear later in the file" — rewriting a doc comment to say "reads the
hook from the global" failed the ratchet. A guard that fails on prose is a
guard someone deletes, and this one is what stands between a reshuffled
import and a silently dead diagnostic. Require a quote after `from`, tolerate
comment obfuscation, and catch `await import(...)`, which makes the shim
async so react-dom evaluates before the hook is installed.

The 4000-char budget assertion matched `/stack$/i` against the raw key, but
the real rule camel-splits first — so `driverstack` would pass while shipping
truncated frames. Assert through sanitizeCrashReportDetails, resolving the
key from the payload rather than hard-coding it.
