[2018/03/13 13:09:52:2208] USER: LWS minimal ws server + threads | visit http://localhost:7681
[2018/03/13 13:09:52:2365] NOTICE: Creating Vhost 'default' port 7681, 2 protocols, IPv6 off

Visit http://localhost:7681 on multiple browser windows

Two asynchronous threads generate strings and add them to a ringbuffer, signalling lws to send new entries to all the browser windows.

This demonstrates how to safely manage asynchronously generated content and hook it up to the lws service thread.
