support SSL connection on the frontend #47

Goal: alacrity can listen on https, secured by a SSL certificate

Points to pay attention for:

how do we configure the SSL certificate?
how do we handle SSL certificate renewal?
easy integration with Let's encrypt?

👍 on the easy integration with let's encrypt. other than that, i think renewal is out of scope. i would look to nginx for an example of how to setup and configure the ssl cert.

the hyper tokio branch (and https://crates.io/crates/hyper-tls) has no support for this yet.
