44            This function is used to perform the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebSocket#Protocol_handshake" target="_top">WebSocket
45            handshake</a>, required before messages can be sent and received.
46            During the handshake, the client sends the Websocket Upgrade HTTP request,
47            and the server replies with an HTTP response indicating the result of
48            the handshake. The call blocks until one of the following conditions
49            is true:
50          </p>
51<div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; ">
52<li class="listitem">
53                The request is received and the response is sent.
54              </li>
55<li class="listitem">
56                An error occurs.
57              </li>
58</ul></div>
59<p>
60            The algorithm, known as a <span class="emphasis"><em>composed operation</em></span>, is
61            implemented in terms of calls to the next layer's <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">read_some</span></code>
62            and <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">write_some</span></code> functions.
63            If a valid upgrade request is received, an HTTP response with a <a href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7230#section-3.1.2" target="_top">status-code</a>
64            of <a class="link" href="../../boost__beast__http__status.html" title="http::status"><code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">beast</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">http</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">status</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">switching_protocols</span></code></a> is sent
65            to the peer, otherwise a non-successful error is associated with the
66            operation. If the request size exceeds the capacity of the stream's internal
67            buffer, the error <a class="link" href="../../boost__beast__websocket__error.html" title="websocket::error"><code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">error</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">buffer_overflow</span></code></a> will be indicated.
68            To handle larger requests, an application should read the HTTP request
69            directly using <a class="link" href="../../boost__beast__http__read/overload1.html" title="http::read (1 of 4 overloads)"><code class="computeroutput">
70            <span class="identifier">http</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">read</span> </code></a> and then pass the request
71            to the appropriate overload of <a class="link" href="overload1.html" title="websocket::stream::accept (1 of 6 overloads)"><code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">accept</span></code></a> or <a class="link" href="../async_accept/overload1.html" title="websocket::stream::async_accept (1 of 3 overloads)"><code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">async_accept</span></code></a>
