    Description

      If one attempts cbbackup using the -s option and specifies HTTPS protocol for the target URL, an error message is shown.

      Example:

      ```
      cbbackup -u Administrator -p password -s https://brian3.local:18091 /opt/cb_backups/
      ```

      Results in:

      ```
      error: unknown type of source: https://brian3.local:18091
      ```

      It is perhaps counterintuitive and confusing to perform secure backups with -s or --ssl option to a plain HTTP protocol based URL target. Can we please have support for HTTPS source and updated the cbbackup documentation accordingly?
