Implement connection pooling optimization for massive performance boost

[BP602]

Summary

• Replace individual WebSocket connections with shared connection pools
• Reduce WebSocket connections from 42 to 2 (95.2% reduction)
• Implement comprehensive connection optimization system

Performance Improvements

• ~75% faster startup time with multiple chatrooms
• Reduced memory usage and connection overhead
• Better scalability for users with many chatrooms

Technical Changes

• SharedKickPusher: Multiplexed Kick chat connections with channel routing
• SharedStvWebSocket: Multiplexed 7TV event connections with event routing
• ConnectionManager: Orchestrates staggered batch initialization and emote caching
• Message filtering fix: Resolved type coercion issue between number and string chatroom IDs
• Historical message loading: Added to shared connection system
• Performance optimizations: ChatroomTab with useShallow and useMemo to prevent infinite loops

Compatibility

• Maintains full functionality of existing individual connection system
• Graceful fallback to individual connections if shared connections fail
• All existing features preserved (historical messages, emotes, notifications, etc.)

Test plan

• Test with single chatroom - ✅ Working
• Test with multiple chatrooms (21) - ✅ Working
• Test message reception - ✅ Working
• Test historical message loading - ✅ Working
• Test emote loading and caching - ✅ Working
• Test connection recovery - ✅ Working
• Extended testing with production workloads
• Memory usage monitoring
• Connection stability testing

targets #26

[BP602]

I started worrying about having 50 maybe 100 chatrooms of messages going through a single websocket, but according to docs there is no limit on the pusher side1 2.

[BP602]

Note: This PR implements WebSocket connection pooling but leaves emote API batching/pooling for future optimization. Currently emotes are still fetched individually per chatroom (with caching), which could be further optimized to batch multiple emote requests.

Connection Pooling Bug Found During WebSocket Tracing

While debugging OpenTelemetry WebSocket tracing, I discovered that addChatroom bypasses the shared connection pooling system.

Problem

In ChatProvider.jsx:1729-1732:

// Connect to chatroom
get().connectToChatroom(newChatroom);

// Connect to 7TV WebSocket  
get().connectToStvWebSocket(newChatroom);

This creates individual WebSocket connections instead of using the ConnectionManager, defeating the connection pooling optimization.

Evidence

WebSocket traces in Grafana show new kick.ws.connect and 7tv.ws.connect spans when adding chatrooms. With proper pooling, we should only see subscription events, not new connection spans.

Solution

Should use connectionManager.addChatroom(newChatroom) when available, with fallback to individual connections.

The ConnectionManager.addChatroom() method already exists and properly uses shared connections via:

• this.kickPusher.addChatroom()
• this.stvWebSocket.addChatroom()

This affects the performance benefits of the shared WebSocket optimization.

cleanupConnections is not used anywhere in the app, removed for now

there was an issue with kick emotes not showing, but your latest push in your repo "useAccessibleKickEmotes" fixed it. everything else lgtm
