feat(javascript): recognize tRPC procedures and GraphQL operations (#1670)

* feat(javascript): recognize tRPC procedures and GraphQL operations

Record RPC client syntax as network endpoint candidates in both
analyze_javascript_application and analyze_web_bundle, distinguished by
mechanism:

- trpc:procedure:<method> keeps the static member path of
  root.<path>.<method>(...), which tRPC proxies preserve through
  identifier minification. React hooks and TanStack option factories are
  recognized directly. Vanilla query/mutate need a root bound to
  createTRPCClient/createTRPCProxyClient, or a tRPC source marker with a
  router path of at least two segments; subscribe needs the marker and a
  tRPC observer argument. `this` roots, browser globals and RTK Query
  `endpoints` chains are never procedures; cache-key helpers are excluded.
- trpc🔗<link> records the literal url of documented HTTP links.
- graphql:<type> records named operations from string and cooked template
  literals with a valid operation header, and from precompiled
  OperationDefinition objects; a graphql-tag loc.source.body copy is not
  reported twice.

Method, callback and factory names follow @trpc/client and React/TanStack
integration sources and documentation for 11.19. Carrier segments before
the router path, useUtils helpers and minifier-renamed links remain
documented limitations.

Validation: typecheck; domain tests for recognition and false positives
(Apollo, RxJS, stores, RTK Query, browser globals, prose); web bundle
analyzer test; end-to-end analysis of a minified fixture through the
built MCP server on Windows 11.
