Task 3C — Render All Turns Before Capture

Goal: Before extraction, automatically scroll through the ChatGPT conversation so virtualized turns are rendered in the DOM.

Approach:

1. Find all section[data-testid^="conversation-turn-"][data-turn].
2. Scroll each turn into view in ascending order.
3. Wait briefly after each scroll for React to render content.
4. After reaching the bottom, run the turn-section extractor.
5. If any turns are still empty, mark them not_rendered.

Requirements:

• Do not click buttons.
• Do not submit messages.
• Do not alter conversation content.
• Use scrollIntoView only.
• Add timeout protection.
• Show status: "Preparing conversation for capture..."
