This commit implements middlewares at the Engine.IO level, because
Socket.IO middlewares are meant for namespace authorization and are not
executed during a classic HTTP request/response cycle.
A workaround was possible by using the allowRequest option and the
"headers" event, but this feels way cleaner and works with upgrade
requests too.
Syntax:
```js
engine.use((req, res, next) => {
// do something
next();
});
// with express-session
import session from "express-session";
engine.use(session({
secret: "keyboard cat",
resave: false,
saveUninitialized: true,
cookie: { secure: true }
});
// with helmet
import helmet from "helmet";
engine.use(helmet());
```
