Handle WebSocket Upgrade

Reported by: zzz Owned by: zzz
Priority: minor Milestone: 0.9.39
Component: apps/i2ptunnel Version: 0.9.38
Keywords: Cc: Meeh, Zlatin Balevsky
Parent Tickets: Sensitive: no

Description

HTTP client/server proxies break WebSocket? Upgrade.

Client sends: 

Origin: http://example.i2p
Connection: keep-alive, Upgrade
Upgrade: websocket

but Connection: is rewritten to Connection: close
Also, Origin: may or may not need to be rewritten for CORS checks to pass.

Server responds:

HTTP/1.1 101 Switching Protocols
Connection: upgrade
Upgrade: websocket

but Connection: is rewritten to Connection: close

client doesn't upgrade. not clear what happens after upgrade, if it's more headers or just data e.g. json. We can't just get rid of the header rewriting because we don't support HTTP/1.1 pipelining, so we must detect the upgrade case and do something different.
