Hi,

Brian updated the web server tutorial (*) to include instructions on setting up a https server. For https, you need to compile nginx with "--with-http_ssl_module", and that is not enabled by default in rumprun-packages. Is there any reason to not turn it on by default? The resulting binary will be a bit larger (+), but then again I think we should ship with crypto by default.

+) openssl libcrypto is megabyte-big. Yesterday I checked that libressl seems to "just work" on rumprun. libressl is only marginally smaller than openssl, though. I guess ssl is another case of "(small,complete), choose one"
