What kind of change does this PR introduce?
Bug fix.
What is the current behavior?
When creating a Supabase client on the server side, the _initialize() method tries to access window.location.href, causing a ReferenceError and crashing the process. As a result, the method this.recoverAndRefresh responsible for restoring and refreshing the authentication state does not get called properly. other methods may recover the session later, so this doesn’t immediately break all functionality. However, this still represents an inconsistent design: recoverAndRefresh() is server-compatible, yet it's gated behind a browser-only execution path.
What is the new behavior?
This change adds a check using isBrowser() to avoid accessing window.location.href on the server side by providing empty parameters instead. This prevents the crash and allows this.recoverAndRefresh to be called correctly, enabling proper restoration and refreshing of the authentication state in server-side environments.
