lukaszraczylo 4ffe555bfd fix(captcha): strip reasoning-model <think> blocks before json extraction
Reasoning models prefix responses with <think>...</think> (or
<thinking>...</thinking>) scratchpad that can itself contain a JSON-looking
object. The brace-counting extractor would grab that inner object instead of
the real answer. Strip think/thinking blocks via a package-level regexp before
the balanced-object scan. Adds table cases covering both tag spellings while
keeping the plain, prose-wrapped, and unbalanced cases intact.

// thinkRe matches reasoning-model scratchpad blocks (<think>…</think> or
// <thinking>…</thinking>). These can themselves contain JSON-looking objects,
// so they are stripped before the brace scan to avoid grabbing the wrong object.
var thinkRe = regexp.MustCompile(`(?s)<think(?:ing)?>.*?</think(?:ing)?>`)
// extractJSON returns the first balanced {...} object found in s, or s unchanged
// if no opening brace is present. It scans by brace depth so prose, markdown
// fences, or an example object before the real one do not corrupt parsing.
// Reasoning-model <think>…</think> blocks are stripped first so a JSON-looking
// object inside the scratchpad is not mistaken for the answer.
// Note: it does not account for braces inside string literals; that is
// acceptable for the short, structured captcha responses this handles.
