instead of puppeteer.exposeFunction(), use cdp function bindings directly to avoid issues custom toJSON overrides:

- add Runtime.addBinding for each exposed function, handle in one place with Runtime.bindingCalled
- convert binding names to BxFunctionBindings enum
- update to browsertrix-behaviors 0.7.1 to avoid waiting for return value
- fixes #770
