Transfer ownership of an ENS name to another wallet address. Automatically detects whether the name is wrapped (NameWrapper/ERC-1155) or unwrapped (BaseRegistrar/ERC-721) and builds the correct transaction. Requirements: - The fromAddress must currently own the name - The recipient (toAddress) may be a 0x address or an ENS name — names resolve to their address record - The name must be registered (not expired) WARNING: This transfers FULL ownership. The recipient gains complete control including the ability to transfer, set records, or let the name expire. Resolver records (avatar, addresses, etc.) are NOT affected by transfer — they stay on the name..
