Make it so that cancelled timeouts don't leak
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Instead of using `Closure::once_into_js`, this uses `into_js_value`,
which uses weak references to clean up the closure when Javascript no
longer has need of it.

It would be nice to make this (and the similar interval function) drop
the callback promptly when cancelled, but I don't think that's
possible while keeping the handles Copy.

Fixes #2330

// Closure::once_into_js only frees the callback when it's actually
