PLT-3562 Switch websocket over to post-connect authentication (#4327)

* Switch websocket over to post-connect authentication

* Add ability to specify token in websocket js driver, add unit tests

* Temporarily disable client websocket tests until issues are resolved

* Minor refactoring and fix status test

* Add isAuthenticated method to WebConn and minor status updates
