today we send snapshots if session replay is enabled
there could be a mode where we keep recordings in memory until an error happens, and discard after a while if nothing is broken

Research direction
Start by tracing the Flutter SDK's session replay recording and snapshot-sending flow, then identify how errors such as $exception are captured. Define how an in-memory recording mode is enabled, how long recordings are retained, and how snapshots are sent only after an error; verify that recordings are discarded when no error occurs.
