The "_placeholder" attribute is used when sending binary data, and was
incorrectly mangled (converted to a random short property, like "it",
to reduce the bundle size).
This bug was introduced in [1], included in `socket.io-client@4.8.0`.

By default, Babel uses `Object.defineProperty()` when transpiling
classes. We'll now use the loose mode which creates a more terse
output.

When a laptop is suspended or a phone is locked, the timer that is used
to check the liveness of the connection is paused and is not able to
detect that the heartbeat has failed.
Previously, emitting a message after resuming the page would lose the
message. The status of the timer will now be checked before sending the
message, so that it gets buffered and sent upon reconnection.
Note: we could also have used the Page Visibility API or a custom
setTimeout() method based on setInterval(), but this would not be as
reliable as the current solution.

in [1], though it was never applied to the other repositories nor
mentioned in the client bundles.
