Support QGIS PKCS12 record for authentication #26

Is it possible to support QGIS client certificate record to present to a WFS URL instead of username/password? Thanks!

Having had a quick look at this, it is probably necessary to use the QgsNetworkAccessManager instead of a simple QNetworkAccessManager and rework the HTTP request handling (using blockingGet()?), which if my understanding is correct would let "core" QGIS take care of more of the work (incl. authentication).

This would probably be a good idea in any case. Pull requests very welcome!

I'm pretty unfamiliar with QGIS python API but I am starting to slowly learn it. I won't have any PRs ready very soon, but I will take this as a task to work on. Best wishes!
