[autofix.ci] apply automated fixes

Fixes two critical bugs causing WebSocket disconnections and malformed HTTP response errors:

## WebSocket Protocol Validation Bug
- Fixed incorrect logic in WebSocketUpgradeClient where connections without client protocols would fail when server sends Sec-WebSocket-Protocol header
- Changed `if (this.websocket_protocol == 0 or ...)` to `if (this.websocket_protocol != 0 and ...)`
- This was causing "mismatch_client_protocol" errors for legitimate connections

## HTTP Response Error Handling
- Enhanced malformed HTTP response handling in main HTTP client
- Added specific logging for malformed responses to aid debugging
- Cleaned up picohttp error handling structure

## Testing
- Added comprehensive regression tests covering malformed HTTP responses, WebSocket protocol validation, and connection resilience scenarios
- Tests verify fixes work for both protocol and no-protocol WebSocket connections

Resolves Nuxt DevTools "Disconnected from server" issues when using --bun flag.
