Fabio Alessandrelli a48d0b5eef Disable Nagle's algorithm for WebSocket TCP.
This should greatly decrease latency for the most common use cases.
A new function WebSocketPeer::set_no_delay will allow to configure it if
so desired.

<description>
Closes this WebSocket connection. [code]code[/code] is the status code for the closure (see RFC 6455 section 7.4 for a list of valid status codes). [code]reason[/code] is the human readable reason for closing the connection (can be any UTF-8 string that's smaller than 123 bytes).
[b]Note:[/b] To achieve a clean close, you will need to keep polling until either [signal WebSocketClient.connection_closed] or [signal WebSocketServer.client_disconnected] is received.
[b]Note:[/b] The HTML5 export might not support all status codes. Please refer to browser-specific documentation for more details.
