In the signaller clients and servers, the following sequence is used to close
the websocket (in the [send task]):
```rust
ws_sink.send(WsMessage::Close(None)).await?;
ws_sink.close().await?;
```
tungstenite's [`WebSocket::close()` doc] states:
> Calling this function is the same as calling `write(Message::Close(..))``
So we might think they are redundant and either could be used for this purpose
(`send()` calls `write()`, then `flush()`).
The result is actually is bit different as `write()` starts by checking the
state of the connection and [returns `SendAfterClosing`] if the socket is no
longer active, which is the case when a closing request has been received from
the peer via a [call to `do_close()`]). Note that `do_close()` also enqueues a
`Close` frame.
This behaviour is visible from the server's logs:
```
1. tungstenite::protocol: Received close frame: None
2. tungstenite::protocol: Replying to close with Frame { header: FrameHeader { .., opcode: Control(Close), .. }, payload: [] }
3. gst_plugin_webrtc_signalling::server: Received message Ok(Close(None))
4. gst_plugin_webrtc_signalling::server: connection closed: None this_id=cb13892f-b4d5-4d59-95e2-b3873a7bd319
5. remove_peer{peer_id="cb13892f-b4d5-4d59-95e2-b3873a7bd319"}: gst_plugin_webrtc_signalling::server: close time.busy=285µs time.idle=55.5µs
6. async_tungstenite: websocket start_send error: WebSocket protocol error: Sending after closing is not allowed
```
1: The server's websocket receives the peer's `Close(None)`.
2: `do_close()` enqueues a `Close` frame.
3: The incoming `Close(None)` is handled by the server.
4 & 5: perform session closing.
6: `ws_sink.send(WsMessage::Close(None))` attempts to `write()` while the ws
is no longer active. The error causes an early return, which means that
the enqueued `Close` frame is not flushed.
Depending on the peer's shutdown sequence, this can result in the following
error, which can bubble up as a `Message` on the application's bus:
```
ERROR: from element /GstPipeline:pipeline0/GstWebRTCSrc:webrtcsrc0: GStreamer encountered a general stream error.
Additional debug info:
net/webrtc/src/webrtcsrc/imp.rs(625): gstrswebrtc::webrtcsrc:👿:BaseWebRTCSrc::connect_signaller::{{closure}}::{{closure}} (): /GstPipeline:pipeline0/GstWebRTCSrc:webrtcsrc0:
Signalling error: Error receiving: WebSocket protocol error: Connection reset without closing handshake
```
On the other hand, [`close()` ensures the ws is active] before attempting to
write a `Close` frame. If it's not, it only flushes the stream.
Thus, when we want to be able to close the websocket and/or to honor the closing
handshake in response to the peer `Close` message, the `ws_sink.close()`
variant is preferable.
This can be verified in the resulting server's logs:
```
tungstenite::protocol: Received close frame: None
tungstenite::protocol: Replying to close with Frame { header: FrameHeader { is_final: true, rsv1: false, rsv2: false, rsv3: false, opcode: Control(Close), mask: None}, payload: [] }
gst_plugin_webrtc_signalling::server: Received message Ok(Close(None))
gst_plugin_webrtc_signalling::server: connection closed: None this_id=192ed7ff-3b9d-45c5-be66-872cbe67d190
remove_peer{peer_id="192ed7ff-3b9d-45c5-be66-872cbe67d190"}: gst_plugin_webrtc_signalling::server: close time.busy=22.7µs time.idle=37.4µs
tungstenite::protocol: Sending pong/close
```
We now get the notification `Sending pong/close` (the closing handshake) instead
of `websocket start_send error` from step 6 with previous variant.
The `Connection reset without closing handshake` was not observed after this
change.
