Fix type mismatch in StreamCancelFn assignment

[stevenvo]

Summary

Fixes build error introduced in #2709 where StreamCancelFn assignment has incorrect function signature.

Problem

Build fails with:

pkg/wshrpc/wshclient/wshclientutil.go:66:24: cannot use func(ctx context.Context) error 
as func() value in assignment

Root Cause

• StreamCancelFn is defined as func() in wshrpctypes.go:376
• But was assigned a function with signature func(ctx context.Context) error in wshclientutil.go:66

Fix

Match the expected signature by:

1. Removing parameters and return value from the lambda
2. Using context.Background() for the SendCancel call

Testing

Build now succeeds without type errors.

Walkthrough

Two files were modified to update the signature of the StreamCancelFn field in the RpcOpts type. The field type in wshrpctypes.go was changed from func() to func(context.Context) error. The corresponding usage in wshclientutil.go was updated to call SendCancel with a background context and handle the error return value appropriately within the streaming request-response helper function.

pkg/wshrpc/wshrpctypes.go (1)

376-376: Type definition change is correct, but creates a compilation failure with the usage site.

The change to func(context.Context) error follows Go conventions for context-aware cancellation. However, this creates a type mismatch with the assignment in wshclientutil.go line 66, where a func() lambda is being assigned to this field. This will cause a compilation failure (confirmed by the static analysis error in that file).

The issue needs to be fixed in wshclientutil.go by updating the lambda to match this signature.

Stream cancel callback still mismatches web handler signature

The new zero-arg StreamCancelFn here still does not match how it is consumed: handleRemoteStreamFileFromCh in pkg/web/web.go expects a func(context.Context) error and passes that type through rpcOpts.StreamCancelFn, so after this change the web package will still fail to compile with a type error (func() vs func(context.Context) error). This patch therefore doesn’t resolve the build break that motivated it; building the web server will still halt at that call site.
