External WS library?

Hi all,

        Regarding the plan to add WebSocket to curl, would it be useful to consider, instead of writing a new implementation, incorporating an existing library?

        I’ve worked a bit with libwebsockets, which seems quite complete. Until recently it didn’t integrate into a custom external event loop--as would be needed for integration into something like curl--but the upstream code now can.

        It’s mostly MIT-licensed; I don’t know if that’s “close enough”: https://libwebsockets.org/git/libwebsockets/tree/LICENSE
