Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/guyzyl/whatsapp-contact-sync/issues/26

The project currently uses web sockets (WS) in order to update the frontend from the backend. This is necessary for things such as updating the WhatsApp QR code, and updating the sync progress.
Although it works, it causes issues when put together with the Express session management (for example #22, #23).

Removing the WS logic from the backend+frontend should make the code simpler, and less prone to errors.
