Summary by cubic

Adds proxy authentication support and stabilizes CDP Runtime usage by enabling then immediately disabling around core operations. Also simplifies CI and updates the package scope to @natewong1313.

New Features
- Proxy auth via DevTools Fetch: handles auth challenges with username/password and cleans up listeners on teardown.
Refactors
- Pair Runtime.enable with Runtime.disable across page, frame, locator, and snapshot flows to prevent context issues.
- Rename package to @natewong1313/stagehand and update imports in server/evals.
- Streamline CI to lint, build, and Vitest; remove extra workflows. Update release to use NPM token and drop canary.

^{Written for commit 460136a. Summary will update on new commits.}
