features:
- In the 'publishers' section of a meter/event pipeline definition, https://
can now be used in addition to http://. Furthermore, either Basic or
client-certificate authentication can be used (obviously, client cert only
makes sense in the https case).
For Basic authentication, use the form http://username:password@hostname/.
For client certificate authentication pass the client certificate's path
(and the key file path, if the key is not in the certificate file) using
the parameters 'clientcert' and 'clientkey', e.g.
https://hostname/path?clientcert=/path/to/cert&clientkey=/path/to/key.
Any parameters or credentials used for http(s) publishers are removed from
the URL before the actual HTTP request is made.
