The server is disabled by default and can be enabled and disabled from JMC preferences. This is a rework of the proof-of-concept code in https://github.com/openjdk/jmc/pull/225 and uses the JSON serialiser introduced in #279.

Since [the latest available version](https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.eclipse.jetty.websocket/websocket-server) for the jetty websocket server is `9.4.43.v20210629` we can't use the newer `10.x` for the transitive dependencies.

> I have seen in the PR description this codes needs to stick with 9.4.43…. But I noticed the coordinate of the artefacts may have changed after version 9 (group:`org.eclipse.jetty.websocket`, artefact: `wesocket-server` -> `websocket-jetty-server`). I haven't yet checked the dependencies in the POM, maybe that helps.

Interesting, thanks for pointing this out!

I picked 9.4.43 because it was the latest version I saw here https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.eclipse.jetty.websocket/websocket-server I didn't notice the rename for later versions. �� 

Maybe I can get rid of the dependency issues if I just use `10.0.5` which is already required by _something_ (I don't know what) in the uitests.
