[tech] UCC wildcard certificate

Globalsign want crazy money for wildcard certificates. 
https://www.ssls.com/ssl-certificates/comodo-positivessl-wildcard is about 
as reasonable as it gets. The club can probably afford $130 for a year's 
worth.

Alternatively, we could just turn HTTPS off for subdomains. We've got a 
cert for secure.ucc.asn.au that's good until 2018. I didn't put HSTS on my 
domain ;-)
