Correct incorrect typing for websocket in express-ws types

Please fill in this template.

• Use a meaningful title for the pull request. Include the name of the package modified.
• Test the change in your own code. (Compile and run.)
• Add or edit tests to reflect the change.
• Follow the advice from the readme.
• Avoid common mistakes.
• Run pnpm test <package to test>.

Select one of these and delete the others:

If adding a new definition:

• The package does not already provide its own types, or cannot have its .d.ts files generated via --declaration
• If this is for an npm package, match the name. If not, do not conflict with the name of an npm package.
• Create it with dts-gen --dt, not by basing it on an existing project.
• Represents shape of module/library correctly
• tsconfig.json should have noImplicitAny, noImplicitThis, strictNullChecks, and strictFunctionTypes set to true.

If changing an existing definition:

• Provide a URL to documentation or source code which provides context for the suggested changes: <>
• If this PR brings the type definitions up to date with a new version of the JS library, update the version number in the package.json.

If removing a declaration:

• If a package was never on Definitely Typed, you don't need to do anything. (If you wrote a package and provided types, you don't need to register it with us.)
• Delete the package's directory.
• Add it to notNeededPackages.json.

Hey @yashsavalia1,

😒 Your PR doesn't modify any tests, so it's hard to know what's being fixed, and your changes might regress in the future. Please consider adding tests to cover the change you're making. Including tests allows this PR to be merged by yourself and the owners of this module.

This can potentially save days of time for you!

🔔 @ajliv — please review this PR in the next few days. Be sure to explicitly select Approve or Request Changes in the GitHub UI so I know what's going on.

Re-ping @ajliv:

This PR has been out for over a week, yet I haven't seen any reviews.

Could someone please give it some attention? Thanks!

ws is a synonym of ws.WebSocket, although I think the new code is easier to understand.

[sandersn]

ws defines WebSocketServer as a synonym of Server by declaring a const and an interface. What's the advantage of switching? Based only on the types, I'd prefer Server since it's the original. But I know nothing about ws except what I got from reading index.d.ts.
