lt.api's fetch wrapper (_apiFetchAuth in base.js — the live
implementation lt.api.* resolves to) already resynced
window.CSRF_TOKEN from a 403 response's csrf_token field, but still
threw immediately — every caller saw a raw "Invalid CSRF token" error
on the FIRST attempt, with no transparent retry. Since CsrfMiddleware's
token lifetime (1h) is shorter than the session idle timeout (5h),
this was a routine, fully recoverable case (an hour of page
inactivity, or a write in another tab rotating the shared token), not
a real rejection.
After resyncing the token from a 403 body that carries one, now
retries the original request exactly once with the fresh token before
surfacing an error — transparent to the caller on the common case,
with a `retried` flag preventing more than one retry so a genuinely
broken session still fails cleanly instead of looping. Verified via
jsdom with a mocked fetch: a 403-then-succeeds sequence resolves
successfully with exactly 2 network calls and the correct final
token; a persistently-403 sequence still throws after exactly 2 calls
(no infinite retry).
