Reviewer's Guide by Sourcery

This PR implements wireless communication support for the PSLab board using the ESP8266 ESP01 chip. The implementation replaces the existing HTTP-based communication with a socket-based approach, introducing a new SocketClient class for handling TCP/IP connections. The changes modify the communication layer to support both USB and WiFi connections seamlessly.

@CloudyPadmal Could you please provide feedback on the fact that if the lines on which I'm working here are correct.
Many things in this PR are currently done ONLY for testing.
It'd be great if you could have a look and provide your feedback if this resembles something which we want to achieve. 🤣
I've not yet configured this properly with the hardware so that I may be able to test this. I'll do that very soon.
Currently, the app only successfully connects to the ESP chip on the board.
