Bug recently introduced makes gno-js's provider.evaluateExpression timeout

Description

I'm trying to build a Medium-like app using Gno.
I started a bare-minimum contract and frontend (with gno-js and Adena), but when using provider.evaluateExpression it timeouts.
But the issue isn't with the websocket connexion, as calling provider.getFunctionSignatures or provider.getFileContent works fine.

I recently changed my computer (Fedora -> Mac) so my Gno installation is fresh, and I discovered that it was working correctly on my Fedora (that was installed on commit 93299802, which is at the time of writing 56 commits behind master).
It also works correctly on @agherasie's Mac, where he installed Gno at the same time as I did on my Fedora.
After doing a git checkout and make install on this commit, it works.

Looks like something broke in the meantime, I don't really know where, probably in gnodev ?
Or maybe in gno-js that doesn't support latest versions of gnodev ?, exact commit in the comment below

Your environment

• Mac M3
• master, 31a5f2ea

Steps to reproduce

• Use evaluateExpression from gno-js (my usage: provider.evaluateExpression("gno.land/r/demo/gnovox", "GetBlogs()")
• Run gnodev locally to serve the realm called (my usage: gnodev ./contract/r/gnovox)
• Notice that the evaluateExpression return an error: Request timed out while other methods work correctly

Expected behaviour

It should returns a result, in my case (nil []string)

Actual behaviour

Throws an error: Request timed out

I'll dig this evening if I have some time to try to find the commit where this broke.

This is the commit where it broke: fix: (gnovm) star expr assign for

It was working fine in the commit just before: feat: refactor govdao structure and examples

PS: When testing locally these particular commits, you won't be able to launch gnodev because of the wrong package name introduced here: feat: add r/demo/bar20 example and fixed here fix(examples): update /r/demo/bar20/gno.mod
So either remove the bar20 or edit the gno.mod like the fix to be able to run gnodev
