HTTP redirect to HTTPS for web UI

[George Liu]

Hi All:
I'm working on http redirect to https task(
https://github.com/ibm-openbmc/dev/issues/895).
I took a cursory look at the design(
https://gerrit.openbmc-project.xyz/c/openbmc/docs/+/24173) and did some
testing.

In bmcweb, I find it the current communication logic can only listen to one
communication protocol (http or https). If you listen to both protocols at
the same time, you need to change a lot of code and communication logic.
If we are going to implement this feature in bmcweb, it costs extra effort
and it's likely the implementation is no better than Nginx. so I prefer to
use Nginx.

Please everyone stay here to discuss and leave your comments.

Thanks!
