KDE Connect SSL

There is a branch called "sslmaster" which has both the ssl changes and the
capabilities already merged, as I mentioned in the original email, and it
seemed to work. Capabilities make the plugins that are not supported by
both devices to be disabled, so we a) don't load things we don't need and
2) we don't present the user options that don't work. If you don't
advertise any capabilities, though, all the plugins are still loaded to be
backwards compatible.
