Description

The [ClientWebSocket Class docs for ASP.NET Core 2.1](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.net.websockets.clientwebsocket?view=netcore-2.1) say, "the only public implementations of client and server WebSockets are supported on Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012."

However, [WebSockets support in ASP.NET Core](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/fundamentals/websockets?view=aspnetcore-2.1) says that WebSockets are supported on "any OS that supports ASP.NET Core."

These contradictory statements of support need to be reconciled.
