/**
* A Web Socket session represents a conversation between two web socket endpoints. As soon as the websocket handshake
* completes successfully, the web socket implementation provides the endpoint an open websocket session. The endpoint
* can then register interest in incoming messages that are part of this newly created session by providing a
* MessageHandler to the session, and can send messages to the other end of the conversation by means of the
* RemoteEndpoint object obtained from this session.
*
* Once the session is closed, it is no longer valid for use by applications. Calling any of its methods (with the
* exception of the close() methods) once the session has been closed will result in an
* {@link java.lang.IllegalStateException} being thrown. Developers should retrieve any information from the session
* during the {@link Endpoint#onClose} method. Following the convention of {@link java.io.Closeable} calling the Session
* close() methods after the Session has been closed has no effect.
*
* Session objects may be called by multiple threads. Implementations must ensure the integrity of the mutable
* properties of the session under such circumstances.
