// The nối từ wire contract.
//
// This file is the single source of truth for everything crossing the
// WebSocket. Both the Go server and the JavaScript client are generated from
// it; neither side hand-writes a message type. Every frame is a binary
// protobuf message — there is no JSON fallback and no text frame.
//
// Compatibility rules, because a deployed client outlives a deploy:
//   - changes are additive only;
//   - a removed field's tag goes to `reserved`, never to another field;
//   - Hello.protocol_version lets the server refuse an incompatible client
//     with a readable error instead of failing to decode.
