[racket-dev] https connections in tests in drdr?

If we just want to test HTTPS, then another option is to always run a
trusted HTTPS server (like Apache) on DrDr and have it contact that... so
it doesn't rely on the real network. (That is, if we don't want to have the
test spawn a Racket implemented HTTPS server.)
