fix: prevent ghost Room memory leak by stripping listeners before disconnect

Browse Source 
LiveKit's Room.disconnect() tears down WebRTC but leaves .on() handlers
attached. Every connect() registers ~15 event handlers, which accumulate
on orphaned Room instances during rapid channel switches or HMR, causing
MaxListenersExceededWarning. Added destroyRoom() helper that calls
removeAllListeners() before disconnect() at all four teardown sites.
