Adds Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting.WindowsServices package and a --service
CLI flag to Program.cs that logs service mode activation, enabling future
Windows Service lifecycle management.
Adds 10 new fields to NatsOptions (ClientAdvertise, TraceVerbose, MaxTracedMsgLen,
DisableSublistCache, ConnectErrorReports, ReconnectErrorReports, NoHeaderSupport,
MaxClosedClients, NoSystemAccount, SystemAccount) plus InCmdLine tracking set.
Moves MaxClosedClients from a private constant in NatsServer to a configurable option.
Introduces NATS.Server.Tls.OcspMode (Auto/Always/Must/Never matching
Go ocsp.go constants) and OcspConfig with Mode and OverrideUrls. Adds
OcspConfig? and OcspPeerVerify to NatsOptions for stapling configuration
and peer certificate revocation checking. Covered by 12 new unit tests.
Adds the IAccountResolver interface (FetchAsync, StoreAsync, IsReadOnly)
and a MemAccountResolver backed by ConcurrentDictionary for in-memory
JWT storage in tests and simple operator deployments.

Port the NATS configuration file lexer from Go's conf/lex.go to C#.
The lexer is a state-machine tokenizer that supports the NATS config
format: key-value pairs with =, :, or whitespace separators; nested
maps {}; arrays []; single and double quoted strings with escape
sequences; block strings (); variables $VAR; include directives;
comments (# and //); booleans; integers with size suffixes (kb, mb, gb);
floats; ISO8601 datetimes; and IP addresses.
Full port design for WebSocket connections from Go NATS server,
including HTTP upgrade handshake, custom frame parser, compression,
origin checking, and cookie-based auth.
Avoids re-serializing the same ServerInfo JSON on every new connection. The
cache is rebuilt when the ephemeral port is resolved. Connections that carry a
per-connection nonce (NKey auth) continue to serialize individually so the nonce
is included correctly.
Reconcile close reason tracking: feature branch's MarkClosed() and
ShouldSkipFlush/FlushAndCloseAsync now use main's ClientClosedReason
enum. ClosedState enum retained for forward compatibility.
Reject connections that send no_responders:true without headers:true,
since the 503 HMSG response requires header support. Add three tests:
connection rejection, acceptance with headers, and 503 delivery flow.
When a client sends CONNECT {"verbose":true}, the server now responds
with +OK\r\n after successfully processing CONNECT, PING, SUB, UNSUB,
and PUB/HPUB commands, matching the Go NATS server behavior.
Accumulate InMsgs/InBytes locally per ReadAsync cycle and flush once,
reducing from 4 Interlocked operations per published message to 2 per
read cycle. This matches the Go server's approach of batching stats.
