+`HTTP.WebSockets.open` can also handshake over an already-connected `IO` instead
+of a URL. Pass any byte stream (a raw `TCPSocket`, a TLS stream, etc.) as the
+first argument, and optionally override the request-line `target`/`Host` header.
+This is handy when the transport is established out-of-band or for tunnelling
+WebSockets over a custom stream. The caller retains ownership of the `IO`, `open`
+never closes it.
