XCode 7 requires requires reduced NSAppTransportSecurity for http SG #53

As a demo app, I had to add the following to Info.plist to work against Sync Gateway without SSL on.

There may be a better way to handle this when building for development, but adding this worked for me after some searching.

Yup, that's the easiest way to work around this. The real fix is to switch the server to HTTPS, though.

As our demo server is still using http:// and to make it easy for testing with local sync-gateway, I will make the change for now. I will keep the issue open.
