This allows pages with active WebSockets to enter the BFCache by removing the step that marks the document as unsalvageable.
Mirroring the WebTransport integration, the user agent now invokes the WebSocket context cleanup steps (to be added in whatwg/websockets#74) on BFCache entry. This triggers a connection failure, which queues a task to fire error and close events that are dispatched only after the page is restored from the BFCache.
