 An object is "refable" if it implements the Node.js "Refable protocol".

 event loop alive, while "unref'd" objects will not. Historically, this was
 implemented by using `ref()` and `unref()` methods directly on the objects.
 This pattern, however, is being deprecated in favor of the "Refable protocol"
