    Read client IP from websocketservice-provided temp file if exists.

    Ditch TTYLOC method; no longer needed. (Note: websocketservice's
    UTF-8 handling rendered this unusable anyway.)

    Remove rlogin/webv4 specific lookup method; no longer needed.

    Log Message:
    Read the WebSocket relay's sidecar file a line at a time

    websocketservice.js writes <temp_dir>/sbbs-ws-<port>.ip so a backend can recover the real client address from behind the relay, and that file now carries a second line -- the authenticated web user. xtrn/wttr.in's
    locator.js read it with File.read(), which reads to EOF, so it got both
    lines back joined by a CRLF and returned that as the client's address.
    It then goes out as part of an HTTP request line and as a cache key.

    readln() is the correct read here regardless: the value wanted is the
    first line, and it was only ever safe to slurp the file while the file
    happened to hold nothing else. It strips the trailing CR, so no CRLF
    survives into the address. A truncated read now returns early rather
    than throwing, since the relay's open('w') empties the file before
    writing it and a reader can land in that window.

    Correct the comment above the write, too. It said any existing backend
    still read exactly the first line; the address is indeed still the first
    line, but that is a statement about the file and not about its readers,
    and the reader in this tree was not one.
