We used to have our own WebSocket wrapper, which was replaced in cf410d0bd2127973739208ef94b2df59cc0b720e with angular-websocket, since that provided the functionality that we needed on top of WebSockets, namely: * Integration with Angular $scope by wrapping onmessage callbacks with $scope.$apply() * Automatic reconnection in the event of a disconnection * Queuing of messages sent prior to a connection being established. Unfortunately, angular-websocket also brings in a somewhat unnecessary dependency on the "ws" module. That got out of date and resulted in no longer being able to build H with the current version of Node. See https://github.com/AngularClass/angular-websocket/issues/47 This gave us either the choice of fixing angular-websocket or replacing the dependency. This commit removes the angular-websocket dependency in favor of our own WebSocket wrapper, but unlike before, we outsource the retry logic to the "retry" package. A benefit of this is that we get better logging of what is going on during automated reconnects.
