release: v0.3.24 — SOCKS5 proxy support, arm64 146 upgrade, ElementHandle humanize

Route SOCKS5/SOCKS5h proxies via --proxy-server Chrome arg instead of
Playwright's proxy dict (which rejects SOCKS5 with credentials).
Handles string URLs, Playwright dicts, IPv6, bypass lists.

SOCKS5 geoip exit IP resolution uses socks-proxy-agent (optional peer
dep). Falls back to DNS if not installed.

+ *   click (with clickCount), hover, type, press, tap, select,
+ *   focus, drop, dragAndDrop
+ *   + $, $$, waitForSelector (nested elements are also patched)
+ *
+ * BROWSER-LEVEL:
+ *   newPage, createBrowserContext / createIncognitoBrowserContext,
+ *   targetcreated event
+ *
+ * Stealth-aware:
+ *   - isInputElement / isSelectorFocused use CDP Isolated Worlds
+ *   - Shift symbol typing uses CDP Input.dispatchKeyEvent (isTrusted=true)

+ * Puppeteer-specific adaptations:
+ *   - page.createCDPSession() instead of context.newCDPSession(page)
+ *   - page.viewport() instead of page.viewportSize()
+ *   - page.$(selector) instead of page.locator(selector)
+ *   - keyboard.sendCharacter() mapped via RawKeyboard.insertText
