The debug controller accumulates recorder actions in a closure and re-sends the full list in every `sourceChanged` event. The list was never cleared when recording was disabled, so a subsequent recording session on the same page leaked the previous session's actions: a late signal (dialog, navigation, popup) re-rendered a stale action as the last one, and clients that diff by count - like the VS Code extension's "Record at cursor" - inserted that stale action into the editor. Clear the accumulated actions when the recorder mode switches to 'none', so each session starts from a clean list. Fixes: microsoft#42218

Shouldn't this include 'standby' as well?

none, so the next recording session on the same page starts from a clean listAddresses the cross-session variant of #42218. The mid-recording variant is fixed on the extension side: microsoft/playwright-vscode#807
