    Support for SSL/TLS ('wss://') on both sides. · adfe6ac1

    On the client side, this adds the as3crypto library to web-socket-js
    so that the WebSocket 'wss://' scheme is supported which is WebSocket
    over SSL/TLS.
    
    Couple of downsides to the fall-back method:
    
        - This balloons the size of the web-socket-js object from about 12K to 172K.
    
        - Getting it working required disabling RFC2718 web proxy support
          in web-socket-js.
    
        - It makes the web-socket-js fallback even slower with the
          encryption overhead.
    
    The server side (wsproxy.py) uses python SSL support. The proxy
    automatically detects the type of incoming connection whether flash
    policy request, SSL/TLS handshake ('wss://') or plain socket
    ('ws://').
    
    Also added a check-box to the web page to enable/disabled 'wss://'
    encryption.
