"superagent: double callback bug" with timeout #1801

Description

@gramakri

Describe the bug

Node.js version: v18.16.0

OS version: ubuntu 22.04

Description:
When a request aborts with a timeout, it calls the callback twice resulting in a message being printed on the console "superagent: double callback bug"

Expected behavior

Should not print the console message and should not call the callback twice

Code to reproduce

const superagent = require('superagent');

(async function () {
    try {
        await superagent.get('https://some/slow/api').timeout(20000);
    } catch (error) {
        console.log(error);
    }
})();

Output (with DEBUG=*) :

  superagent GET https://some/slow/api +0ms
  superagent GET https://some/slow/api -> 200 +5s

Error: Timeout of 20000ms exceeded
