[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Web Client and Load Balancer

[Josh Stompro]

Martha, I can now report that pound proxy can work with websockets and
evergreen.

I used the fork at https://github.com/graygnuorg/pound which includes the
websocket support that was submitted by a contributor, but hasn't ever been
committed to the main release.

Works fine so far.
Josh
