Fixes an issue where event.currentTarget would be accessed asynchronously, resulting in a TypeError. This occurred during file uploads. Saving event.target synchronously solves this.


PR created automatically by Jules for task 18363888274915932256 started by @fdaei

This commit fixes a runtime TypeError ("Cannot set properties of null")
that occurs when trying to reset an `<input type="file">`'s value
after an asynchronous upload process. `event.currentTarget` can become
null asynchronously. The solution synchronously saves a reference to
`event.target` before starting the asynchronous work, and uses that
reference in the `finally` block to clear the input value.

The identical fix is applied to both `website-builder.tsx` and
`language-manager.tsx`.
