This is an initial attempt to make it easier to test the examples in the https.md doc
at this point, it has to be a manual thing, and I've been running it in boot2docker
so my process is
$ boot2docker ssh
$$ git clone https://github.com/docker/docker
$$ cd docker/docs/articles/https
$$ make cert
lots of things to see and manually answer, as openssl wants to be interactive
NOTE: make sure you enter the hostname (boot2docker in my case) when prompted for Computer Name)
$$ sudo make run
start another terminal
$ boot2docker ssh $$ cd docker/docs/articles/https $$ make client
the last will connect first with --tls and then with --tlsverify
both should succeed
