Updated taint_shim.js to support object listeners in postMessage instrumentation. Added handling for JSDOM environments where window.addEventListener is own property. Cleared instrumentation caches in cleanup routine. Added regression test case.


PR created automatically by Jules for task 1098246405047230223 started by @xkilldash9x

This commit updates `instrumentPostMessage` in `taint_shim.js` to correctly instrument event listeners that are objects with a `handleEvent` method, ensuring security checks within these methods are analyzed.

It also addresses JSDOM environment quirks discovered during testing by ensuring `window.addEventListener` is explicitly patched if it differs from the prototype, and adds proper cache cleanup to support robust testing.

Fixes bug where object-based event listeners were ignored.
