Patch Changes

• #4134 ab10064 Thanks @posthog! - Bound autocapture's DOM ancestor walks against abnormal host-page DOM trees. autocapturePropertiesForElement and shouldCaptureElement now stop climbing the parentNode chain after 1000 ancestors or if they revisit a node (only possible when a page patches parentNode, since native DOMs cannot contain cycles), instead of walking indefinitely. When shouldCaptureElement cannot finish checking ancestors for ph-no-capture/ph-sensitive, it fails closed and reports the element as not capturable. Behavior on normal DOM trees is unchanged.

• #4141 17d956c Thanks @posthog! - Log network-level fetch failures from posthog-js's own request layer (ad blocker, dropped connection, CORS, page teardown) at warn instead of error. The browser rejects these with a generic TypeError (Failed to fetch, Firefox's NetworkError..., or Safari's Load failed); they are already caught and retried by the request queue, so they are expected noise rather than SDK errors — _fetch now gives them the same warn treatment as our own timeout aborts. Genuine, unexpected errors still log at error.
