### Fixed

- **Worker channel listeners now preserve Node registration semantics (#6763).**
`MessagePort` keeps distinct listeners in order, deduplicates repeated
registrations, removes only the requested callback, honors `once`, reports
listener counts, and passes the close event to close listeners.
`MessagePort` and `BroadcastChannel` EventTarget listeners also honor the
`{ once: true }` option, with callback snapshots rooted across moving GC.

Root options before reading its property.

Line 489 creates a raw object pointer. Line 492 calls get_object_field, which creates a JS string before it uses that pointer. A moving collection can invalidate options and cause a stale-pointer dereference.

Root the NaN-boxed value before any allocation. Recompute the raw pointer after key allocation.

Proposed fix 
 fn listener_once(options: f64) -> bool {
-    let Some(options) = object_ptr_from_value(options) else {
+    let scope = perry_runtime::gc::RuntimeHandleScope::new();
+    let options_value = scope.root_nanbox_f64(options);
+    let key = js_string_from_bytes(b"once".as_ptr(), 4);
+    let Some(options) = object_ptr_from_value(options_value.get_nanbox_f64()) else {
         return false;
     };
-    perry_runtime::value::js_is_truthy(get_object_field(options, "once")) != 0
+    perry_runtime::value::js_is_truthy(
+        perry_runtime::object::js_object_get_field_by_name_f64(options, key),
+    ) != 0
 }

As per coding guidelines: “A GC-managed value's root store must dominate every subsequent site that can collect.”

listener_once so the NaN-boxed options value is rooted before any property-key
allocation or other potentially collecting operation, then recompute the raw
object pointer immediately before get_object_field. Preserve the existing false
return for non-object options and truthiness handling for the once property.
