It looks like this pull request may not have tests. Please make sure to add tests or get an explicit test exemption before merging. If you are not sure if you need tests, consider this rule of thumb: the purpose of a test is to make sure someone doesn't accidentally revert the fix. Ask yourself, is there anything in your PR that you feel it is important we not accidentally revert back to how it was before your fix? Reviewers: Read the Tree Hygiene page and make sure this patch meets those guidelines before LGTMing. If you believe this PR qualifies for a test exemption, contact "@test-exemption-reviewer" in the #hackers channel in Discord (don't just cc them here, they won't see it!). The test exemption team is a small volunteer group, so all reviewers should feel empowered to ask for tests, without delegating that responsibility entirely to the test exemption group. |

Code Review
This pull request updates the Chrome tracing configuration to use traceConfig with thread CPU time enabled, and introduces support for the wall-clock duration field dur in BlinkTraceEvent as a fallback when tdur is missing. Feedback suggests refactoring the duration calculation in _computeAverageDuration to assign the value to a local variable first, leveraging Dart's type promotion to avoid using the null-assertion operator (!).

This PR fixes a source of flakiness in the devicelab
runWebBenchmarktask, particularly on macOS ARM64 machines. The issue occurs when thetdur(thread CPU duration) field is missing from a Chrome trace event, causing the benchmark harness to throw aFormatException.Changes in this PR:

This ensures Chrome makes its best effort to capture thread durations.dur) when calculating average frame times iftduris still unavailable (which happens occasionally due to sandbox/OS limitations blocking Mach thread API calls on macOS).Pre-launch Checklist
