closes: #166 This patch provides an initial implementation for websocket support for paho. For the websocket specification see RFC 6455. The purpose of this patch is to allow connnecting to an MQTT broker listening on a websocket port (typically 80 [HTTP] or 443 [HTTPS]) to be able to communicate with a client using the paho library. Using websockets to communicate increases the packet overhead both sending and receiving as well as additional setup and ping packets. However, using websockets allows for communications on standard HTTP/HTTPS ports which are generally already configured by firewalls to allow outside communications. To use websockets, prefix the connection URI with either: "ws://" or "wss://" for either websockets or secure websockets, repectfully. Signed-off-by:
