Consider adding an option to accounts to allow bypassing SSL certificate checks

[mattjgalloway]

We could add an option to accounts that then makes all handling of requests for that account bypass SSL certificate checks. This could alleviate problems where people are using self-signed certificates and want to be OK with the certificate not being checked.

Dear Matt,

I have a emonpi in a local network running and struggle with connection to your app (see pic enclosed). I've tried with the Android version as well and this works fine. I wonder if this could be any cerficate issue as well!?

Your help is highly appreciated!

Dear Matt,

Found the issue by myself: there always has to be a http:// in front to make the connection work! Maybe you could catch this in future updates ... !?

Best regards,

Hecot

Glad you found it @Hecot! I was going to mention that - but then you found it!

I had considered automatically adding https://, but for some reason didn’t. Now I can’t remember my logic. I think I’ll revisit it and just do it!

Created #51 for it.
