This PR adds support for passing additional transport options like headers for all transports except websockets and also receiving an info event when the /info response is received.

The use case here is to support cookie-based session stickiness when the client is running in Node.js and the server is behind an AWS ALB or another LB that uses cookie-based session stickiness.

This setup is really useful for setting up streaming between two processes across the internet that need to communicate in real-time but have to account for corporate proxies in the middle breaking any attempt at a true streaming connection.

There is a bit of a philosophical question here on whether this project wants to support this use case at all, but if you do then having some way to simulate the cookie process in the browser when using the fallback transports is a necessity.
