sending request to unused path with popsicle causes node process to hang indefinitely

See original GitHub issue

Platform: Windows 8.1

Packages:

nock@9.0.9
popsicle@9.1.0

Requesting a url that hasn’t been registered in nock will cause the entire node process to block indefinitely until it is killed. Simple example:

const popsicle = require('popsicle');
const nock = require('nock');

let scope = nock('http://google.com')
  .get('/hello').reply(200, 'OK');

popsicle.request('http://google.com/hello').then(res => console.log(res.body)); // This works

popsicle.request('http://google.com/hi').then(res => console.log(res.body)); // Hangs

setting DEBUG=nock.* constantly spams “req.abort”. ex:

  nock.request_overrider req.abort +1ms
  nock.request_overrider req.abort +2ms
  nock.request_overrider req.abort +1ms
  nock.request_overrider req.abort +0ms
  nock.request_overrider req.abort +1ms
  nock.request_overrider req.abort +0ms
  nock.request_overrider req.abort +1ms
  nock.request_overrider req.abort +0ms
  nock.request_overrider req.abort +1ms

I caught a bug in 9.0.9, but after 9.0.19 it didn’t reproduce. It seems to be a fixed in #886 .

Would be great make PR with branch bug-841-popsicle-hangs, because the branch has a useful test 👍
