When a chart is destroyed while an animation frame is in-flight, the animation callback can still execute and attempt operations on null/destroyed canvas elements, causing multiple crash scenarios:
Both issues share the same root cause: Animator._update() executes after chart.destroy(), attempting to render on destroyed canvas resources.
Crash paths:
This manifests in Vue/React SPAs when users navigate away from pages containing animated charts. The component unmount destroys the chart, but previously-scheduled animation frames may still fire and attempt to access destroyed resources.
Similar to the issue fixed in #11764 for clearCanvas.
