Description

This change introduces some helper functions and initialization code to have a barebones https server up with external private key and certificates.

This PR is introducing:

• The setup functionality for a net/http webserver,
• The logic to load a user provided certificate to the webserver,
• Tests to validate the behaviour of all of these features,
• Command line options that will be useful in production.

The command line for GoCert accepts 1 mandatory argument:

• --config receives the path for a YAML file that describes the following variables:
  • KeyPath is the path for a private key of a x.509 certificate,
  • CertPath is the path for a x.509 certificate,
  • DBPath is the path for a file for SQLite to use,
  • Port is an integer for which port the service will be deployed in,
