hot-reload gives reactives a dict as value

[Jhsmit]

On solara 1.27 (not 1.26.1), when my app hot-reloads, the value of one of my Reactives is now a dict with value: {'solara-session-id': '394f6b57-6d9e-4875-be13-be4bfdcc0a73', 'theme': 'eyJ0aGVtZSI6ImxpZ2h0In0%3D.YF7SjbwEyaUmkh1IHz5Q9e3yBUVrr6A44GtYJbw%2F .... }

Hi @Jhsmit!

That dict looks an awful lot like a value solara.lab.cookies (exposed in #501) would take. Out of curiosity, what is the reactive variable that changes value called?

[Jhsmit]

yes I also found the dict to be a bit suspicious looking
the reactive is called dataset_id

See #274
We solved it by giving the reactive variable in solara a stable fixed key.
@iisakkirotko do you want to do a similar PR?
These things are difficult to test btw, I think this is something we need to simply not forget. Any reactive variable in solara itself will not be reset on hot reload, which will mess up the other reactive variables.

Maybe, if we include the source file (where it is called from), in the key, these key collisions/stealings are less likely to happen.

@maartenbreddels I'll make a PR first thing tomorrow morning!
