fix: avoid spurious unhandledRejection when transport fails mid-sendRequest

If the transport fails (or #receive observes stream closure) while sendRequest is awaiting #sendMessage, #close() rejects the response promise before the caller's await has attached a handler. Node then reports a spurious unhandledRejection (followed by PromiseRejectionHandledWarning), even though the caller's await does observe the rejection.

Attach a noop .catch to responsePromise so the rejection is considered handled at the time it's raised. The rejection is still delivered to the caller verbatim via 'return responsePromise'.
