Description
Describe the problem
I connect to a SurrealDB instance using my client-side init hook. This instance uses JWT-based authentication. Therefore, I need to obtain a token from my authentication provider. I already do this at the back end via the hooks and pass the token to the client via event.locals. Ideally, I would like this data to be available in the client-side init function so that I do not need to obtain the token again on the client.
Describe the proposed solution
Change ClientInit so that it gets the locals as a parameter.

Research direction
Start by locating the ClientInit definition and the existing path that makes event.locals available to client code. Trace how the client-side init function is called and determine the related tests or fixtures. Done means the init function receives the locals needed for the JWT flow without requiring the token to be obtained again on the client.
