fix(drag): wrap setPointerCapture in try/catch to handle InvalidPointerId

[EduardF1]

Problem

DragEngine.pointerDown calls setPointerCapture unguarded:

if (config.pointerCapture) {
  ;(event.target as HTMLElement).setPointerCapture(event.pointerId)
}

Browsers throw a DOMException: InvalidPointerId when the pointer id is no longer valid by the time this runs — e.g. the pointer was released between event dispatch and the capture call during rapid touch interactions or certain browser quirks. The exception aborts pointerDown, so the drag gesture never starts.

The symmetric releasePointerCapture call in pointerUp is already wrapped in try/catch for exactly this reason — this PR adds the missing guard on the other side.

Fix

Wrap setPointerCapture in try/catch, consistent with the existing releasePointerCapture handling. The drag proceeds without pointer capture instead of throwing.

Tests

Adds a regression test in test/drag.test.tsx that makes setPointerCapture throw InvalidPointerId and asserts the drag still starts (active/dragging true, onDragStart fired). Verified it fails on main and passes with the fix.

• pnpm jest — 218 passed (8 suites), including the new test
• eslint packages/core/src/engines/DragEngine.ts — clean

Includes a changeset (@use-gesture/core patch).

Fixes #701

Note: supersedes my earlier #705, which was unmergeable because the branch accidentally included a large amount of unrelated build output. This is a clean re-submission containing only the logic fix, the regression test, and a changeset.
