* fix(dispatchRequest): attach response to AxiosError on JSON parse failure

When JSON.parse fails in strict mode (responseType: 'json' or
silentJSONParsing: false), the thrown AxiosError was missing both
error.response and error.status because transformResponse has no
direct access to the response object — only the config is available
as `this` inside transformData.

Root cause: transformData is called as transformData.call(config, ...)
and AxiosError.from uses `this.response` to populate the error's
response field, but config.response was never set.

Fix: in dispatchRequest, temporarily assign the response object to
config.response before invoking transformData, then clean it up in a
finally block to avoid permanently polluting the config object.

This ensures error.response and error.status are available when a
request with responseType='json' receives a malformed JSON body,
making the error consistent with all other AxiosError instances.

Fixes #7224

* chore: added additional testing and removed the misleading test
