* feat: implement real-time traffic monitoring and UI updates using a high-performance WebSocket hub and background job system
* feat: add bulk client management support and improve inbound data handling
* Fix bug
* **Fixes & Changes:**
1. **Fixed XPadding Placement Dropdown**:
- Added the missing `cookie` and `query` options to `xPaddingPlacement` (`stream_xhttp.html`).
- *Why:* Previously, users wanting `cookie` obfuscation were forced to use the `header` placement string. This caused Xray-core to blindly intercept the entire monolithic HTTP Cookie header, failing internal padding-length validations and causing the inbound to silently drop the connection.
2. **Fixed Uplink Data Placement Validation**:
- Replaced the unsupported `query` option with `cookie` in `uplinkDataPlacement`.
- *Why:* Xray-core's `transport_internet.go` explicitly forbids `query` as an uplink placement option. Selecting it from the UI previously sent a payload that would cause Xray-core to instantly throw an `unsupported uplink data placement: query` panic. Adding `cookie` perfectly aligns the UI with Xray-core restrictions.

- **[Fix X-Padding UI]** Added missing `cookie` and `query` options to X-Padding Placement. Fixes the issue where using Cookie fallback triggers whole HTTP Cookie header interception and silent drop in Xray-core. (Resolves [#3992](https://github.com/MHSanaei/3x-ui/issues/3992))
- **[Fix Uplink Data Options]** Replaced the invalid `query` option with `cookie` in Uplink Data Placement dropdown to prevent Xray-core backend panic `unsupported uplink data placement: query`.
- **[Fix WebSockets Spam]** Boosted `maxMessageSize` boundary to 100MB and gracefully handled fallback fetch signals via `broadcastInvalidate` to avoid buffer dropping spam. (Resolves [#3984](https://github.com/MHSanaei/3x-ui/issues/3984))

Replace simple curl+trim checks with a response+http_code parse to ensure the remote URL returns HTTP 200 and a non-empty body before assigning server_ip. Changes applied to install.sh, update.sh and x-ui.sh: use curl -w to append the status code, extract http_code and ip_result, and only set server_ip when http_code == 200 and ip_result is non-empty. This makes the IP discovery more robust against error pages or partial responses while keeping the existing timeout behavior.
Introduces user prompts to select the port for ACME HTTP-01 certificate validation (default 80), checks if the chosen port is available, and provides guidance for port forwarding. Adds is_port_in_use helper to all scripts and improves messaging for certificate issuance and error handling.
