Description

Fix HTTPS certificate for webpage

https://security.googleblog.com/2018/02/a-secure-web-is-here-to-stay.html

Currently our cert is for github.io, so when you browse from geomesa.org you get invalid cert warnings/blocks.

Likely this can be solved with subject alt names for geomesa.org

This is partially fixed, but leaving off the www from the url (i.e. geomesa.org) still gives a cert warning.
