Review Comment:
   An async contribution chart can now fail when its totals cache entry exceeds 
10 MB (for example, from a large annotation layer): the totals task still 
succeeds and publishes its cache key, but `_inject_contribution_totals` raises 
on the missing entry, so the browser never reaches the synchronous recompute. 
Could we preserve or recompute that prerequisite before enabling the cap by 
default, and cover the totals-to-contribution task boundary rather than only 
calling the processor twice?
