Attempt to re-establish websocket connection to Gateway

When notebook (with `--gateway-url` option) lost the connection to
Gateway, notebook didn't connect to Gateway again although the
websocket connection from the client was still alive.

This change recovers the connection to Gateway to prevent this anomaly.
