Description:
Currently, Hermes MCP supports STDIO and HTTP/SSE transports. Adding WebSockets support would provide another viable transport option with potential benefits for certain use cases, such as improved bidirectional communication and potentially better reconnection capabilities.

Subtasks:

  • Create Hermes.Transport.WebSocket module implementing the Transport behavior
  • Implement connection establishment logic
  • Implement message sending over WebSockets
  • Handle connection failures and reconnections
  • Add proper lifecycle management (initialization, termination)
  • Write comprehensive tests for the WebSocket transport
  • Update documentation to include WebSocket transport options

## Problem

The library needed WebSocket transport support for bidirectional
communication with MCP
 servers.

## Solution

Implemented a WebSocket transport module with:
- Server connection handling
- Bidirectional message passing
- Comprehensive test coverage
- Dependency upgrades for WebSocket support

Close #10

## Rationale

WebSocket provides real-time, bidirectional communication necessary for
efficient MCP
client-server interaction.
