sse: Close connection before page switch
Description
This PR may require changes before needing merge. All it does is unconditionally close the SSE connections before the page is about to be switched. The problem is that - on Chrome (but not Safari) if we do not do this, then the SSE connections are kept alive and for every page/route switch, there will be O(n) active SSE connections, which from time to time causes normal link clicks to hang (DevTools shows that request in pending mode) for sometime before the server responds (using Haskell servant here).
