https #2

The proxy has no valid certificate for https sub-subdomains (no wonder) but this causes a certificate error when rewriting https urls.

The proxy seems to solve this certificate problem by replacing all dots in the hostname with dashes, but I don't yet understand what happens with dashes in the original hostname.

Example https://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=363685 becomes https://dl-acm-org.proxy-ub.rug.nl/citation.cfm?id=363685
