structuredClone shortens sparse arrays with trailing holes

[OskarEichler]

Description

The React Native structuredClone polyfill initializes an array clone as [] and only assigns enumerable keys. If a sparse array's highest populated index precedes its declared length, the trailing holes are lost and the clone is silently shortened. For example, new Array(3) with only index 1 populated becomes length 2.

Expected behavior

The clone should preserve the source array's declared length and holes. Node's native structuredClone follows this behavior.

React Native Version
