Hibernatable Client WebSockets

[helloimalastair]

At the moment, the Hibernatable WebSockets API, while appearing client/server agnostic from the types, only functions with Server-side WebSockets(where the DurableObject is the Server). Would it be possible to add support for Client-side WebSockets to hibernate as well? This would be nice for consuming a WebSocket-based API(real-time data of some kind), and reducing the number of times you have to restart a WebSocket due to a DO getting evicted.

I think this "ought to" be supported, that is, it makes sense technically. I don't think this is something we're likely to work on in the near future, though.

This feature would be really useful specifically for Discord bots, which require connecting to the Discord Gateway API over WebSockets for full functionality. Cloudflare's docs have a Discord bot example, but it uses the very limited HTTP webhook API and so is not practical for most applications.
