Subject: [PATCH] The 'record' option of the WebSocketProxy should be string

If proxy service (VNC, spice, serial) is started with the 'record'
option, an exception is thrown. This is because WebSocketProxy
expects a file path for the record argument instead of boolean
value. This patch fixes this by changing 'record' to be string
option. An empty string means no recording.

Closes-Bug: #1559026
