+fix(cloudflare-node): use native IdentityTransformStream for the response body
+
+The `cloudflare-node` wrapper built the streamed response body from a JS-backed
+`ReadableStream` with a manually captured controller, acknowledging writes
+without backpressure. On deployed Workers this intermittently (20-35% of
+requests in our reproduction) stalled mid-stream: the final flush(es) of
+SSR/RSC responses were never delivered, the terminating chunk was never sent,
+and the client connection stayed open indefinitely — browsers eventually
+exhaust their per-origin connection pool and the whole site appears frozen.
+
+Switching to the Workers-native `IdentityTransformStream` and awaiting
+`writer.write()` provides runtime-managed pumping with real backpressure and
+eliminates the stall (0 hangs in 80 requests after the change, measured on the
+same production deployment).
