[Owncloud] Shared SSL Certificate (SSL Proxy)

[thessy at besser.de]

Hi,

with help from irc channel (thanx to bartv and subik|mac_) I created a 'merge 
request': https://gitorious.org/owncloud/owncloud/merge_requests/74

With this patch OC can be used on shared webhosting services over https 
without having a own ssl certificate for a domain. 

Please review.

Regards
Thomas aka thessy
