Bug Description

right now there is simply no way to do an https get on cirros.

some relevant buildroot ocnfig that might affect this is:

# BR2_PACKAGE_BEECRYPT is not set
# BR2_PACKAGE_GNUTLS is not set
# BR2_PACKAGE_LIBGCRYPT is not set
# BR2_PACKAGE_LIBGPG_ERROR is not set
# BR2_PACKAGE_LIBNSS is not set
# BR2_PACKAGE_OPENSSL is not set

if https support is added, the ssh-import-id will need to be changed to not use the cirros.brickies.net redirecter.

So, for future reference, what I did was:
* build libcurl and openssl as buildroot packages
* add bin/mkcabundle, and its output to src/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
 * rewrite ssh-import-id to use curl rather than wget

At that point 'curl https://www.google.com' works as expected.
