Full Release Notes

## webview2 v1.0.26

### Fixes
- **Recover from transient runtime COM errors instead of exiting** (#5658, #5580). `Chromium.errorCallback` previously called `os.Exit(1)` for *any* COM error, so a recoverable hiccup after startup killed the whole application. Runtime paths (`Resize`/`GetClientRect`, `Navigate`/`NavigateToString`, `Init`, `MessageReceived`, `PutZoomFactor`, `OpenDevToolsWindow`) now log and recover. In particular, a malformed/untrusted web message in `MessageReceived` is now dropped rather than taking the process down. This addresses the mixed-DPI monitor-crossing crash class (#5544, #5650). Environment/controller-creation paths remain fatal.
