HTTP->HTTPS

[dowlingw]

Feature request: Add a https_redirect option to the vhost type that will:

• Implies ssl_only for the default location
• Installs an additional location with ssl => false that performs a temporary or permanent HTTP redirect to the same URL at HTTPS.

This will significantly reduce the amount of boilerplate resources required to do HTTPS-only sites with a friendly redirection for HTTP visitors.

I should be able to generate a PR, but will need some assistance with rspec because n00b.

Happy to assist with the testing :)

I think $rewrite_to_https does this, though it would be easier to find if it had 'ssl' in the parameter name and / or was grouped with the SSL related parameters. Can you see if that works for you?

Feature already exists, though do want to support setting the redirect port, and possibly rename the config option to be more obvious.
