Fix README and docs pages that no longer match the code

Bring the READMEs and the docs pages (en and ja) in line with the
current header:

- Fix the client sample that does not compile, the Transfer-Encoding
  statement for default headers, the verifier callback comment, the
  thread pool spawn rule, the sanitize_filename description, and the
  inverted Accept-Encoding sentence.
- Describe recent behaviour: TLS errors behind Read/Write failures,
  Host validation, Connection: close for a body without length,
  content_reader rules, refused CONNECT, WebSocketClient proxies,
  CPPHTTPLIB_INTERIM_RESPONSE_MAX_COUNT, the SSE event size limit, and
  the payload limit of the Stream API.
- Complete the API references of WebSocket, WebSocketClient and the
  stream:: helpers, and the SSE reconnect rules.
- Fix cookbook pages: keychain loading on every backend, received Close
  status, a multipart sample that trusted the client's file name, an
  echo sample that sent binary as text, SNI, pre-request handler scope,
  stop() with WebSocket handlers, and the thread pool notes.
- Restore the mutex in the LLM app's Chapter 5 code.

Because the body has not been read when the pre-request handler runs, you can reject a request — for example on a failed auth check — without consuming a (potentially large) request body. Note that this also means `req.body` and form fields parsed from the body are not available here; inspect headers, the path, query parameters, or `req.matched_route` instead.
The pre-request handler runs only for requests that match a route. Files served by `set_mount_point()` are answered before route matching, so guard static files in the pre-routing handler.

The pre-request handler also runs for routes registered with `svr.WebSocket()`. It is called before the `101 Switching Protocols` response, so returning `Handled` sends your HTTP response (such as a 403) and the connection is never upgraded.
The server accepts a handshake from any `Origin`. A browser sends its cookies even with a handshake that another site starts, so if cookies authenticate the connection, also check `req.get_header_value("Origin")` against your own origins here.
## Return values
Same as pre-routing — return `HandlerResponse`.
