give the ability to trust a certificate authority
We found ourselves in a position where we needed to access a site with a
certificate issued by a CA not trusted by default in Android. In this case the
browser fails silently and remains blank. This is the workaround we came up
with:
* You save the CA certificate to `www/trusted-ca.der` when building your
cordova app.
* When the plugin loads an https site, the CA gets added to the trusted CAs
for `HttpsUrlConnection`
* When an `SSLError` is received, we do the following:
* Check if the domain of the URL the error is about is in the whitelist
(which starts out empty). If so, we ignore the error and proceed.
* If not, we check if `HttpsUrlConnection` can connect to the domain
without a problem. If so, we add it to the whitelist, ignore the error and
proceed. If not, we fail.
