`new TextDecoder('utf-8', { fatal: true }).decode(..., { stream: true })` behaves differently than node

[hi-ogawa]

Describe the bug

A following code tries to decode non utf-8 data.

// repro.js

function main() {
  const decoder = new TextDecoder('utf-8', { fatal: true });
  // reverse to force non-utf8 binary data
  const data = new TextEncoder().encode('🔥').reverse();
  try {
    const decoded = decoder.decode(data, { stream: true });
    console.log({ decoded });
  } catch (error) {
    console.log({ error });
  }
}

main();

This leads to catch case on Node when run locally:

$ node repro.js
{
  error: TypeError: The encoded data was not valid for encoding utf-8
      at TextDecoder.decode (node:internal/encoding:462:14)
      at main (file:///home/hiroshi/code/tmp/rsc-app/repro.js:6:29)
      at file:///home/hiroshi/code/tmp/rsc-app/repro.js:13:1
      at ModuleJob.run (node:internal/modules/esm/module_job:271:25)
      at async onImport.tracePromise.__proto__ (node:internal/modules/esm/loader:578:26)
      at async asyncRunEntryPointWithESMLoader (node:internal/modules/run_main:116:5) {
    code: 'ERR_ENCODING_INVALID_ENCODED_DATA'
  }
}

However, on Stackblitz, it returns a number 3

❯ node repro.js
{ decoded: 3 }

Expected behavior

It should work like Node:

$ node repro.js
{
  error: TypeError: The encoded data was not valid for encoding utf-8
      at TextDecoder.decode (node:internal/encoding:462:14)
      at main (file:///home/hiroshi/code/tmp/rsc-app/repro.js:6:29)
      at file:///home/hiroshi/code/tmp/rsc-app/repro.js:13:1
      at ModuleJob.run (node:internal/modules/esm/module_job:271:25)
      at async onImport.tracePromise.__proto__ (node:internal/modules/esm/loader:578:26)
      at async asyncRunEntryPointWithESMLoader (node:internal/modules/run_main:116:5) {
    code: 'ERR_ENCODING_INVALID_ENCODED_DATA'
  }
}

Parity with Local

• I have run the project in my local machine and I could not reproduce the issue.

Platform

• OS: [e.g. ~macOS, Windows, Linux] Linux
• Browser: [e.g. Chrome, Safari, Firefox] Chrome
• Version: [e.g. 91.1]

Additional context

I came across the issue in hi-ogawa/vite-plugins#852. The binary payload is encoded as string to inject into html based on TextDecoder.decode where if it succeeds, injected as is and if it fails, it fallsbacks to base64 encoding. The original code is found here https://github.com/devongovett/rsc-html-stream/blob/9938c93975380d13189363565897fb66a59ffb05/server.js#L66-L76
