* Executes a function within a try-catch block and returns a tuple [data, error].

* @returns A tuple where:
* - For success: [data, null] where data is the function's return value
* - For failure: [null, error] where error is the caught exception
*
* @example
* // Synchronous usage
* const [data, error] = tryCatch(() => riskyFunction());

* @example
* // Asynchronous usage
* const [data, error] = await tryCatch(() => asyncRiskyFunction());
