Instead of dropping the server fallback during the retry, React now keeps it in place. Related, pull request 37730…

When the browser skips that transition, the ready promise rejects, and the old cleanup path left an unhandled rejection. The reveal still worked, but console noise and monitoring pain remained. And pull request…
