Release a mutation's retryer once execute settles, so the settled promise no longer keeps that mutation's variables and result reachable for the MutationCache lifetime.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Add a re-entrant execution test for the identity guard.

The current test calls mutation.continue() at Line 1187 after the first execute() has already resolved. This does not verify the case where a second execution replaces this.#retryer before the first finally block runs. Add a test that starts a second execution from an onSettled callback and confirms that the first cleanup does not clear the newer retryer.

1192, Add a re-entrant mutation execution test near the existing retryer-release
test, using an onSettled callback to start a second execute before the first
cleanup completes. Assert that the first execution’s finally cleanup does not
clear the newer retryer, and verify both executions resolve and invoke the
mutation function as expected.
