/**
 * This behaves like a WebSocket in every way, except if it fails to connect,
 * or it gets disconnected, it will repeatedly poll until it succesfully connects
 * again.
 *
 * It is API compatible, so when you have:
 *   ws = new WebSocket('ws://....');
 * you can replace with:
 *   ws = new ReconnectingWebSocket('ws://....');
 *
 * The event stream will typically look like:
 *  onconnecting
 *  onopen
 *  onmessage
 *  onmessage
 *  onclose // lost connection
 *  onconnecting
 *  onopen  // sometime later...
 *  onmessage
 *  onmessage
 *  etc... 
 *
 * It is API compatible with the standard WebSocket API.
