[SSR] Transitions may lead to missing elements after hydration

[mattersj]

Describe the bug

Sometimes transitions may cause missing elements after hydration, especially if a component renders a signal that changes during the rendering process, like in the attached example. Commenting out startTransition wrapper in I18nProvider.tsx fixes the issue.

Your Example Website or App

https://stackblitz.com/edit/github-a26mtb?file=src/app.tsx,src/components/I18nProvider.tsx,src/components/Parent.tsx,src/components/Child.tsx

Steps to Reproduce the Bug or Issue

1. Open the repro
2. Pay your attention to Parent and Child components and what they're supposed to render.
3. You can also refresh the page a few times to see that initially an expected output is rendered on the server but eventually Child component's content is vanished after hydration.

Expected behavior

A correct output from Parent & Child components.

It's worth mentioning that I just stumbled upon another yet similar bug (setup is similar to one in a repro but now I'm using https://github.com/solidjs-community/solid-primitives/tree/main/packages/i18n) where changing a locale during rendering may cause unstable output - sometimes t returns en translation even though a language was explicitly set to fr in the parent component, and sometimes it returns the right translation accounting fr language.
I still haven't managed to get a minimal reproducible example (without a library) and I have some doubts this issue is directly related to Solid but going to leave it here just for additional info that may help.
