 * PostHog-style `elements_chain` format — the single owner of both halves of the
 * contract. The event tracker {@link buildElementsChain serializes} a clicked
 * element (and its ancestors) into a string; the clickmap overlay
 * {@link parseElementsChain parses} that string back into structured segments so
 * it can re-locate the element in a live DOM.
 *
 * Encode and decode MUST round-trip exactly, which is why they live together:
 * the escaping applied here on the write side is reversed by the parser below,
 * and a single round-trip test in `elements-chain.test.tsx` guards the pair.
 *
 * Segment shape (leaf-first, joined by `;`):
 *   tag.class1.class2:nth-child="2":nth-of-type="1":text="Save":attr__id="x":href="..."
