Subject: [PATCH] viewer: accept https:// endpoints and add an http/https
 selector to the connect dialog

- Route https:// URLs to the HTTP reader (LoadFile_i scheme check), not only http://.
- Replace the fixed "http://" label in the Open HTTP Connection dialog with a small
  http/https combo box and build the URL from the chosen scheme.
