refactor: replace empty catches and mark pass-through wrappers in browser-manager

Convert 12 empty catch blocks to selective catches: filesystem ops check
ENOENT/EACCES, browser ops check for closed/Target messages, URL parsing
checks TypeError. Add 'alias for active session' comments above 6
pass-through wrapper methods to document their purpose (and exempt from
slop-scan pass-through-wrappers rule).
