http/https issues #32

Will the wordpress site hosting the embed support https? If so, then the app should be https to avoid security warnings. Recommended for the app to be https in any event.

If deploying to heroku, relatively straightforward, and we can use letsencrypt to do it for free. If self-hosted, should be straightforward too.

If https, we need to go over the embed JS to make sure it's requesting appropriately

We decided to go https, using https://letsencrypt.org/ , with automated renewals, probably using https://github.com/pixielabs/letsencrypt-rails-heroku
