vi/websocat v4.0.0-alpha1

First prerelease of Websocat4

on GitHub

First preliminary release of Websocat4 - rewritten Websocat.

• Not all features are supported. Vote for features to be ported at #276 . This issue may also serve as a migration guide in some cases.
• Websocat1 is still the recommended version. Personally I still use Websocat1 when I need websockets. There will be a 1.14.0 release soon.
• Unfortunately, v4 is more bloated than v1 and it is likely to stay that way.
• DESIGN.md explains why it is not v2.0.
• doc.md is a reference documentation.
• Pre-built Linux and Android executables contain OpenSSL v3.4.0.

You are recommended to try this version and see if it suits you needs (and use #276 if something is missing), but stay with the v1 version for a while until stable release.
