Saurav Panda 9a09c4d7dc fix(cdp): timeout-wrap CDPClient.send_raw to break silent WebSocket hangs
cdp_use.CDPClient.send_raw awaits a future that only resolves when the
browser sends a response with a matching message id. There is no timeout
on that await. Against the cloud browser service, the failure mode we
observed is: WebSocket stays alive at the TCP/keepalive layer (proxy
keeps pong-ing our pings), but the browser upstream is dead / unhealthy
and never sends any CDP response. send_raw's future never resolves, and
every higher-level timeout in browser-use (session.start's 15s connect
guard, agent.step_timeout, tools.act's action timeout) relies on
eventually getting a response — so they all wait forever too.

Evidence from a 170k-task collector run: 1,090 empty-history traces,
100% hit the 240s outer watchdog, median duration 582s, max 2214s, with
cloud HTTP layer clean throughout (all 200/201). One sample showed
/json/version returning 200 OK and then 5 minutes of total silence on
the WebSocket before forced stop — classic silent-hang.

Fix: add TimeoutWrappedCDPClient, a thin subclass of cdp_use.CDPClient
that wraps send_raw in asyncio.wait_for(timeout=cdp_request_timeout_s).
Any CDP method that doesn't respond within the cap raises plain
TimeoutError, which propagates through existing `except TimeoutError`
handlers in session.py / tools/service.py. Uses the same defensive env
parse pattern as BROWSER_USE_ACTION_TIMEOUT_S — rejects empty /
non-numeric / nan / inf / non-positive values with a warning fallback.

Default is 60s: generous for slow operations like Page.captureScreenshot
or Page.printToPDF on heavy pages, but well below the 180s step timeout
and any typical outer watchdog. Override via BROWSER_USE_CDP_TIMEOUT_S.

Wired into both CDPClient construction sites in session.py (initial
connect + reconnect path). All 17 existing real-browser tests
(test_action_blank_page, test_multi_act_guards) still pass.
