make it easier to run with existing webserver
- make it easier to run with an existing webserver. the quickstart now has a new option for that, it generates a different mox.conf, and further instructions such as configuring the tls keys/certs and reverse proxy urls. and changes to make autoconfig work in that case too.
- when starting up, request a tls cert for the hostname and for the autoconfig endpoint. the first will be requested soon anyway, and the autoconfig cert is needed early so the first autoconfig request doesn't time out (without helpful message to the user by at least thunderbird). and don't request the certificate before the servers are online. the root process was now requesting the certs, before the child process was serving on the tls port.
- add examples of configs generated by the quickstart.
- enable debug logging in config from quickstart, to give user more info.

support cram-md5 authentication for imap and smtp
and change thunderbird autoconfiguration to use it.

unfortunately, for microsoft autodiscover, there appears to be no way to
request secure password negotiation. so it will default to plain text auth.

cram-md5 is less secure than scram-sha-*, but thunderbird does not yet support
scram auth. it currently chooses "plain", sending the literal password over the
connection (which is TLS-protected, but we don't want to receive clear text
passwords). in short, cram-md5 is better than nothing...

for cram-md5 to work, a new set of derived credentials need to be stored in the
database. so you need to save your password again to make it work. this was
also the case with the scram-sha-1 addition, but i forgot to mention it then.

allow requesting a certificate for autodiscover.<domain>, but don't recommend a DNS record that would make requests to it.
this may help testing again in the future. autodiscover with outlook is not
working now.
