Describe the bug

When publishing tracks there will be some memory leaks that will increase over time. I used heaptrack in order to track memory leak location and I will heaptrack file and result screenshot.

btw I tested this scenario using rust sdk and in that case memory leaks only happens when I unpublish tracks multiple times but using node sdk in addition to that memory leaks happen even publishing single track normally. also I created an issue in rust sdk repo. https://github.com/livekit/rust-sdks/issues/612

Reproduction

const room = new Room();
await room.connect('ws://localhost:7880', jwt, {autoSubscribe: true, dynacast: true});

room.on(RoomEvent.TrackSubscribed, async (track, publication, participant) => {
    const source = new VideoSource(1920, 1080);
    const av1_track = LocalVideoTrack.createVideoTrack('av1_track', source);
    const vp9_track = LocalVideoTrack.createVideoTrack('vp9_track', source);
    const vp8_track = LocalVideoTrack.createVideoTrack('vp8_track', source);
    await room.localParticipant.publishTrack(av1_track, {
        simulcast: false,
        videoCodec: VideoCodec.AV1,
        source: TrackSource.SOURCE_SCREENSHARE,
        videoEncoding: {
            maxBitrate: 250_000,
            maxFramerate: 10
        }
    })
    await room.localParticipant.publishTrack(vp9_track, {
        simulcast: false,
        videoCodec: VideoCodec.VP9,
        source: TrackSource.SOURCE_SCREENSHARE,
        videoEncoding: {
            maxBitrate: 250_000,
            maxFramerate: 10
        }
    })
    await room.localParticipant.publishTrack(vp8_track, {
        simulcast: false,
        videoCodec: VideoCodec.VP8,
        source: TrackSource.SOURCE_SCREENSHARE,
        videoEncoding: {
            maxBitrate: 250_000,
            maxFramerate: 10
        }
    })

    const stream = new VideoStream(track);
    for await (const buf of stream) {
        await source.captureFrame(buf.frame);
    }

    await source.close()
    stream.close()
});
