## Summary
This PR fixes a memory leak that occurs when `fetch()` is called with a
`ReadableStream` body. The ReadableStream objects were not being
properly released, causing them to accumulate in memory.
## Problem
When using `fetch()` with a ReadableStream body:
```javascript
const stream = new ReadableStream({
start(controller) {
controller.enqueue(new TextEncoder().encode("data"));
controller.close();
}
});
await fetch(url, { method: "POST", body: stream });
```
The ReadableStream objects leak because `FetchTasklet.clearData()` has a
conditional that prevents `detach()` from being called on ReadableStream
request bodies after streaming has started.
### Root Cause
The problematic condition in `clearData()`:
```zig
if (this.request_body != .ReadableStream or this.is_waiting_request_stream_start) {
this.request_body.detach();
}
```
After `startRequestStream()` is called:
- `is_waiting_request_stream_start` becomes `false`
- `request_body` is still `.ReadableStream`
- The condition evaluates to `(false or false) = false`
- `detach()` is skipped → **memory leak**
### Why the Original Code Was Wrong
The original code appears to assume that when `startRequestStream()` is
called, ownership of the Strong reference is transferred to
`ResumableSink`. However, this is incorrect:
1. `startRequestStream()` creates a **new independent** Strong reference
in `ResumableSink` (see `ResumableSink.zig:119`)
2. The FetchTasklet's original reference is **not transferred** - it
becomes redundant
3. Strong references in Bun are independent - calling `deinit()` on one
does not affect the other
## Solution
Remove the conditional and always call `detach()`:
```zig
// Always detach request_body regardless of type.
// When request_body is a ReadableStream, startRequestStream() creates
// an independent Strong reference in ResumableSink, so FetchTasklet's
// reference becomes redundant and must be released to avoid leaks.
this.request_body.detach();
```
### Safety Analysis
This change is safe because:
1. **Strong references are independent**: Each Strong reference
maintains its own ref count. Detaching FetchTasklet's reference doesn't
affect ResumableSink's reference
2. **Idempotency**: `detach()` is safe to call on already-detached
references
3. **Timing**: `clearData()` is only called from `deinit()` after
streaming has completed (ref_count = 0)
4. **No UAF risk**: `deinit()` only runs when ref_count reaches 0, which
means all streaming operations have completed
## Test Results
Before fix (with system Bun):
```
Expected: <= 100
Received: 501 (Request objects leaked)
Received: 1002 (ReadableStream objects leaked)
```
After fix:
```
6 pass
0 fail
```
## Test Coverage
Added comprehensive tests in
`test/js/web/fetch/fetch-cyclic-reference.test.ts` covering:
- Response stream leaks with cyclic references
- Streaming response body leaks
- Request body stream leaks with cyclic references
- ReadableStream body leaks (no cyclic reference needed to reproduce)
- Concurrent fetch operations with cyclic references
