validate incoming web socket messages to game #194

need schema validation (maybe https://github.com/YousefED/typescript-json-schema)
need validation based on game state (should have a whitelist given the phase) and feature flags (in development mode or not)

validation of incoming messages based on the game state (or phase) seems like a good thing to have, I don't believe we are doing anything like that at the moment..

For example, we should log + disregard trade requests that come in during the discard phase.
