Fixes SOU-2250

Summary

  • calculate timing durations with performance.now() instead of relying on the return value of performance.measure()
  • preserve existing performance marks and named measures for browser debugging
  • isolate optional Performance Timeline failures from the measured application behavior
  • add regression coverage for undefined measure results and instrumentation failures

Test plan

  • yarn workspace @sourcebot/web test src/lib/utils.test.ts src/ee/features/codeNav/components/symbolHoverPopup/symbolHoverTargetsExtension.test.ts
  • yarn workspace @sourcebot/web exec eslint src/lib/utils.ts src/lib/utils.test.ts
  • focused TypeScript check for the changed files

Note

Low Risk
Client-side defensive change to shared timing helpers; behavior for successful paths is equivalent aside from duration source, with no security or data-handling impact.

Overview
Fixes code view breakage when browser Performance Timeline APIs misbehave (e.g. performance.measure() returning no value).

measure / measureSync in packages/web/src/lib/utils.ts now derive durationMs from performance.now() before and after the callback instead of reading measure.duration. Marks and named measures are still recorded for DevTools via new recordPerformanceMark / recordPerformanceMeasure helpers that swallow mark/measure errors so instrumentation cannot throw into callers (including code nav symbol hover and file browsing).

Adds packages/web/src/lib/utils.test.ts covering undefined measure results and thrown timeline APIs. Documents the fix under Unreleased → Fixed in CHANGELOG.md.

Summary by cubic

Fixes SOU-2250 by making browser performance timing non-blocking. measure and measureSync previously depended on performance.measure()'s return value; they now use performance.now() deltas, while ignoring Performance Timeline failures so instrumentation cannot break code views or measured operations. Existing marks and named measures remain available for DevTools.

Coverage

  • Adds sync and async regression tests for missing measure results and thrown mark/measure calls.
  • Documents the fix in the changelog.

Written for commit 68d7cd2. Summary will update on new commits.

Walkthrough

Performance measurement utilities now tolerate instrumentation failures and compute durations from performance.now() timestamps. Tests cover synchronous and asynchronous operations. The changelog documents the fix.

instrumentation-failure test that mocks performance.now timestamps and makes
performance.mark and performance.measure throw, then awaits measure with an
