Fragmented send (todo: compression)

Node can't create strings greater than about 1 GB, and Buffers max out at around 2GB. Because of this limitation I've broken up the message into small chunks. I can then send each chunk over the http server like this:

response.cork(() => {
  // ... I've omitted the header write steps for brevity

  for (const chunk of chunks) response.write(chunk);
  response.end();
});

And this works beautifully.

I've tried to find a way to do this using the ws api but send seems to require the whole message. Is there a way to stream chunks into send, or maybe send individual websocket message fragments from JavaScript?

_ observation: even if I can solve this issue the receiving end would need to be able to handle the large ArrayBuffer it will ultimately receive in the single message event - but that is a problem for another day. 😅 `

Start by reading the ws API's send path and the issue discussion, then compare it with Node's response.write chunking example. Determine whether fragmented sends or compression is the requested scope and identify the relevant implementation and tests from there. Done means the supported behavior and its acceptance criteria are documented and verified.
