webhooks events can't POST for HTTPS servers using self-signed cert

[ashvindersingh]

Steps:

• Generate a self signed ssl certificate following https://github.com/couchbase/sync_gateway/tree/master/examples/ssl
• Using build 1.1.0-16 start sync gateway with the below mentioned config.json
• launch a httpsserver on a different machine
• Create a document on SG
• Expected the newly created document to be posted on the httpsserver.
• Found error on the SG console.

Error:

WARNING: Error attempting to post to url https://172.23.105.219:9071: Post https://172.23.105.219:9071: x509: cannot validate certificate for 172.23.105.219 because it doesn't contain any IP SANs -- %!v(MISSING) -- db.func·027() at event_handler.go:111

The issue seems to be with posting to https servers using self-signed certificates, not HTTPS in general.

Was successfully able to test with HTTPS server. The error came due to faulty certificate and was a test setup issue.
