Starts a Wt session.

A Wt application uses a bootstrap procedure during which it collects information on user agent capabilities (unless the progressive bootstrap method is enabled). Therefore a session is not spawned after the first request, but only after these capabilities have been collected by a second request.

This function starts a session on the specific host, port, path, and optional query. These correspond to the different parts of a url:

http://host:port/path?query.
