Ability to connect to a robot with the web controller, independent of what network you and the robot are in.

@thias15 What would this feature involve and how could I get started?

@Coder-Lars, we have created a POC for the remote connection. checkout: https://github.com/isl-org/OpenBot/pull/369 would you like to review it and work on it with us?

Hey @sparsh3dwe, thanks for reaching out but at the moment I don't have time to work on it.
