Replace react-tracked and react-use-websocket with useSyncExternalStore (#22386) * refactor websockets to remove react-tracked react 19 removed useReducer eager bailout, which broke react-tracked. react-tracked works by wrapping state in a JavaScript Proxy. When a component reads state.someField, the proxy records that access. On the next state update, it compares only the fields each component actually touched and skips re-renders if those fields are unchanged. Under the hood, this relies on useReducer — and in React 18, useReducer had an "eager bail-out" that short-circuited rendering when the new state was === to the old state. React 19 removed that optimization, so every dispatch now schedules a render regardless, and the proxy comparison runs too late to prevent it. useSyncExternalStore is a React primitive (added in 18, stable in 19) designed for exactly this pattern: subscribing to an external store: useSyncExternalStore( subscribe, // (listener) => unsubscribe — called when the store changes getSnapshot // () => value — returns the current value for this subscriber ) React calls getSnapshot during render and compares the result with Object.is. If the value is the same reference, the component bails out — no re-render. The key difference from react-tracked is that this bail-out is built into React's reconciler, not bolted on via proxy tricks and useReducer. The per-topic subscription model makes this efficient. Instead of one global store where every subscriber has to check if their fields changed, each useWs("some/topic", ...) call subscribes only to that topic's listener set. When a message arrives for front_door/detect/state, only components subscribed to that exact topic get their listener fired → React calls their getSnapshot → Object.is compares the value → bail-out if unchanged. Components watching back_yard/detect/state are never even notified. * remove react-tracked and react-use-websocket * refactor usePolygonStates to use ws topic subscription * fix TimeAgo refresh interval always returning 1s due to unit mismatch (seconds vs milliseconds) older events now correctly refresh every minute/hour instead of every second * simplify * clean up * don't resend onconnect * clean up * remove patch 2026-03-11 17:02:51 +03:00			`import { createContext } from "react";`
