socket.io-client 4.8.0 automatic reconnect is not working

Describe the bug
I have a client which connects to server
If the server stops and restarts the connect event is not called anymore

In version 4.7.5 the connect event was called when the server restarts and opens the websocket

Socket.IO client version: 4.8.0

Expected behavior
The connect event should be called automatically if the server restarts and opens the websocket

Platform:
NodeJs 16 on Ubuntu 20.04
and also in Chromium 128.0.6613.119

Additional context
On 4.7.5 I get multiple times this connect_error event until it reconnects.

on 4.8.0 I get this errror once and after that I get this endless

No transports available

Reproduce the reconnect behavior with socket.io-client 4.8.0 and compare it with 4.7.5, checking the engine.io-client paths mentioned in the trace, including build/cjs/transport.js and transports/polling.js. Done means the client retries after the server restarts, emits connect again, and does not enter the endless “No transports available” state.
