Global: iPhone 4 disconnects from lobby if screen is allowed to power off on its own #151

The device disconnects from the session on the hub screen as soon as the auto-dimmer elapses and the screen powers off completely. This does not happen if the screen is powered on or off manually.

please verify whether this is strictly an iphone4 thing or a an iphone thing in general. Also please note the browser used

I am unable to control that iOS disconnect if the device is allowed to sleep. And when a device fully disconnects, I have to clear its local session entirely since otherwise the player will run into issues such as #144. As of a recent fix, I can tell the player they've been disconnected, however they will no longer be in the game.
