fix: improve zenuml print rendering, sizing, and syntax resilience

[MrCoder]

Summary

• improve ZenUML print rendering so lifelines remain visible (Fixes Print a ZenUML diagram on Chrome, Edge, or Firefox, and the vertical lines disappear #6004)
• make ZenUML respect Mermaid sizing and container boundaries (Fixes Mermaid Renders ZenUML Diagrams with Abnormal SVG Dimensions Exceeding Container Boundaries, Causing Layout Issues #7266)
• prevent invalid ZenUML syntax from freezing the editor (Fixes ZenUML diagrams on mermaid.live are regularly freezes editor #7154)
• add focused renderer tests and a local type override for @zenuml/core

Details

This change updates the Mermaid ZenUML integration to use native SVG output from @zenuml/core instead of HTML inside foreignObject.

That change addresses three user-facing problems:

Print rendering (#6004): Lifelines are rendered as SVG lines instead of HTML borders, so they continue to appear in print preview and PDF export.

Responsive sizing (#7266): ZenUML output now respects Mermaid's useMaxWidth behavior and stays within its container instead of forcing a fixed oversized SVG.

Invalid syntax resilience (#7154): Invalid ZenUML no longer freezes the editor; rendering falls back to best-effort output instead.

Validation

• pnpm exec vitest run packages/mermaid-zenuml/src/zenumlRenderer.spec.ts
• pnpm exec tsc -p packages/mermaid-zenuml/tsconfig.json --noEmit
