feat: add TCP keepalive options and connection pooling for improved performance

- Added `socket2` dependency for socket options.
- Introduced `keep_alive`, `keep_alive_initial_delay_ms`, and `max_connections` fields in `ConnectionConfig`.
- Implemented TCP keepalive settings in `TcpListenerManager` for both client and backend connections.
- Created a new `ConnectionPool` for managing idle HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2 connections to reduce overhead.
- Enhanced TLS configuration to support ALPN for HTTP/2.
- Added performance tests for connection pooling, stability, and concurrent connections.
