stop materializing response bodies in requestfinished listener
The Bun-side accelerant on the gbrowser-OOM investigation. Pre-fix,
the per-page requestfinished listener called \`await res.body()\` just
to read .length — Playwright fetches the bytes from Chromium across
CDP into a Bun Buffer, only for the listener to discard the buffer
after a single length read. On a long-lived headed browser with
media-heavy pages this is multi-GB/hour of Buffer allocation churn.
Bun GCs it, but the cross-process CDP traffic + transient allocation
pressure feeds the OOM trajectory.

The fix: req.sizes() pulls from the Network.loadingFinished event
Chromium already emits. No body materialization. Accurate for chunked
transfer, gzip-compressed responses, and streaming media — the cases
where a naive Content-Length header read (the original review's
proposal) would have missed the size entirely (Codex flag on the eng
review, D10 USE_CDP_EVENT_BATCHED).

The D10 stretch goal — replacing N per-page listeners with a single
context-level CDP listener via Target.setAutoAttach — is deferred and
tracked in TODOS. The listener architecture change is significantly
more plumbing than the leak fix and not on the critical path for
stopping the body materialization.
