Fixes #57054
Previously, you could either add no
upgradeevent handler to your HTTP server, in which case all HTTP upgrade requests were ignored, or you could add anupgradehandler and all upgrade attempts would always effectively succeed, going straight to theupgradeevent and skipping normal request handling.That can be inflexible, as there's plenty of cases where you want to support just upgrading specific requests (most commonly, specific protocols - e.g. upgrading to support websockets but not h2c).
This change adds a new
shouldUpgradeCallbackoption to HTTP servers, which receives the request details and returns a boolean that controls whether the request should be upgraded. Existing behaviour isn't changed, by making the default option value() => server.listenerCount('upgrade') > 0.
