 * Reads a React element's ref in a version-safe way.
 *
 * React 19 moved `ref` onto `props` (an enumerable prop) and warns whenever the
 * legacy `element.ref` getter is accessed. React 18 keeps the ref on the element
 * itself. So read from `props.ref` on React 19+ and only fall back to
 * `element.ref` on React 18 — avoiding both the deprecation warning and the
 * lost ref.
