Delete a Playwright executor

Stops the executor's process. A call running on it fails with an error saying the executor was deleted. By default the executor's tab is closed too. The name can be reused; the next call with it creates a new executor and tab.

The default executor is restarted instead of removed: its process is stopped, a call running on it fails with an error saying the executor was restarted, and queued and later calls run on a new process. It owns no tab, so 'close_tab' has no effect on it.
