One way to do it from the backend would be to parse the DEVICE_URI
environment variable -- it's available to the call to http_setup_ssl()
from the backend, but I don't know if that's the best way in general
if you want to add generic cert support.

Other than that, I think the options would be

    - add parameters to http_setup_ssl()
    - grap it from a global variable
    - grab the uri from the http_t parameter

Is the uri already passed in via the http_t struct?

Do you have an opinion on the best way to do this?
