Subject: [PATCH] Fix potential Use-After-Free in WorkletAnimationController via animation ID overflow

In AnimationWorklet::NextWorkletAnimationId(), add a
CHECK_GT(last_animation_id_, 0) guard after incrementing
last_animation_id_. This prevents 32-bit signed integer overflow from
wrapping around to 0 or -1, which collides with the reserved
DeletedValue sentinel in WTF::IntHashTraits<int> used by
HeapHashMap<int, Member<WorkletAnimationBase>> animations_ in
WorkletAnimationController.

Original Bug Report

The reporter's bug is still restricted on the tracker. Chrome de-restricts security bugs ~30–90 days after the fix ships; a later run will backfill it here.
