Describe the issue in a sentence or two.

After adding alt text to an image and adding the lazyload plugin, an image flickering is happening very briefly, as it show the alt text before the image. You can see it here if you refresh the demo a few times: https://codesandbox.io/p/sandbox/lazy-loading-lqip-react-js-sdk-2-0-forked-c3hsk6?file=%2Fsrc%2FLazyloading.js%3A34%2C40

I've tried adding a placeholder too and the issue remains the same. using onError to add a default image as shown here doesn't seem to work as well.
