The bridge heartbeats sooner and while partly busy

The session bridge heartbeats sooner and while busy, so the server is less likely to drop it.

What

The bridge now sends a heartbeat immediately after accepting a session, and keeps heartbeating when sessions are running but it still has spare capacity, so the server is less likely to consider it stale.

Details
  • The one-shot heartbeat reports as bridge_work_heartbeat, or initial_failed on failure.
  • Below full capacity it heartbeats every non_exclusive_heartbeat_interval_ms from the server's bridge config, or every 60000 ms once a first heartbeat has been sent and the server-supplied interval is 0.
  • Previously heartbeats only ran while at the maximum session count.

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
