WebSocketUtil Module

# Introduction to the WebSocketUtil Module

The WebSocketUtil module provides common client and server support for RFC-6455 based WebSocket protocol implementations in Qore.

This module is used by the following modules:

- WebSocketClient: provides an event-driven client API for connecting to WebSocket servers
- WebSocketHandler: provides an interface to the Qore HttpServer module for implementing server-side WebSocket services

To use this module directly, use `"%requires WebSocketClient"` in your code, otherwise it's recommended to use one of the higher-level module listed above.

The main functionality provided by this module:

- WebSocketUtil::ws_encode_message(): encodes messages for sending over a websocket connection
- WebSocketUtil::ws_read_message(): reads and decodes messages from a websocket connection
- WebSocket Close Codes
- WebSocket OpCodes
