Description
### Search before asking
- [x] I searched in the [issues](https://github.com/apache/pulsar/issues) and found nothing similar.
### Motivation
I have limited number of web clients. While subscription to a topic remains persistent, publishing to a topic is not persistent. I need to open and close connections each time I have to send data.
I am building a enterprise Fintech Application. Could you kindly provide this feature for native websocket based communication that pulsar supports ?

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by tracing Pulsar’s native WebSocket publishing path and comparing it with the persistent subscription behavior described in the issue. Determine the API and connection-lifecycle changes needed for persistent browser publishing, then define tests that verify a connection can publish multiple messages without reopening it.
