Research direction

Start by investigating the WebRTC connection lifecycle around relay-node closure and reservation expiry, then read the related libp2p/js-libp2p-webrtc issue #173 for context. Reproduce the reported failure and identify the relevant connection entry points; done means browser-to-browser connections continue to work after relay connectivity is closed or expires.
