This change makes it possible to connect the client over WebSocket. Running `websocat wss://example.org/imap` connects to the IMAP and running `websocat wss://example.org/smtp` connects to SMTP (submission service, not port 25). Connecting from a web client will still need a CORS policy for clients not running on the same domain, but for non-web clients this is already usable.

The next step is adding some support to the clients, with manual configuration for now. WebSocket can eventually phase out ALPN-based stream multiplexing, but i'm not removing it and it can coexist with websockets, there is no need to migrate existing users. Discovery of websockets, e.g. extending autoconfig XML or QR codes, is also left for the future. |
