Perspectives (any) error handling is currently completely lacking #4

Right now the connection is just shut down if Perspectives checking fails (or really if we get any error). What should happen is we go ahead and accept the HTTPS connection from the client and then return a HTML page explaining the problem and ultimately giving the client some means of overriding the decision.

Need to check the client request to make sure it will accept HTML in response.

6cf0be56be242aac2ae96e4c80552bc0ee80bb3c handled all of this except for making sure the client is expecting HTML in response.
