Torrent event never emited

[Lunik]

Hi ! Same as #749

• WebTorrent version: 0.93.3
• Node.js version: V6.1.0

var WebTorrent = require('webtorrent')
var client = new WebTorrent()

var torrentId = 'magnet:?xt=urn:btih:6a9759bffd5c0af65319979fb7832189f4f3c35d&dn=sintel.mp4&tr=wss%3A%2F%2Ftracker.btorrent.xyz&tr=wss%3A%2F%2Ftracker.fastcast.nz&tr=wss%3A%2F%2Ftracker.openwebtorrent.com&tr=wss%3A%2F%2Ftracker.webtorrent.io&ws=https%3A%2F%2Fwebtorrent.io%2Ftorrents%2Fsintel-1024-surround.mp4'

client.add(torrentId, function (torrent) {
  // Torrents can contain many files. Let's use the first.
  var file = torrent.files[0]

  // Display the file by adding it to the DOM. Supports video, audio, image, etc. files
  torrent.on('infoHash', function() { console.log('infoHash') })
  torrent.on('metadata', function() { console.log('metadata') })

  torrent.on('ready', function() {
    console.log('ready')
    torrent.on('done', function() { console.log('done') })
    torrent.on('download', function() { console.log('download') })
    torrent.on('wire', function() { console.log('wire') })
  })
})

infoHash, metadata and ready are never emitted...

I figured out in:

var torrent_1 = client.add(magnet, function(torrent_2){
})

That torrent_1 is different that torrent_2

They are the same, it's just that infoHash, metadata and ready are emitted before the callback of client.add is called. Accessing it sync let's you access those events.

That's why the full way to do it is: #749 (comment)
