+1 please add extranonce.subscribe support

I'm not planning going down the ETH route again with multiple stratum specs. Zcash stratum (draft) spec doesn't use extranonce, instead a 256-bit nonce that can be partially set by pool.

I think you should reconsider this;

The reason we use extranonce.subscribe is because there is no other way to change server side nonce if pool would like to do so. We need this feature, because miner may get reassigned to another order, which uses different server side nonce, thus miner needs to be informed about this.

If we are unable to change miner's server nonce, then the only option viable to do is inform him to make a reconnect. This reconnect time is completely unnecessary, it may slow down a miner a bit thus miner performing worse.

The choice is yours of course; as you can see, many miners would like to have such feature.

@nicehashdev thanks for clearing this up.
