DI 1: 20170719: AAI Cert required for HTTPS REST calls

Calls to AAI such as the following require both the authentication header and an imported certificate.  When running Postman - because it is a Chrome app - this is a simple case of loading a REST url in the browser and importing the certificate after an authentication challenge (AAI:AAI).  However for a java client like a JAX-RS 2.0 client we need the certificate in a keystore (the default or a specially defined one).

Below we import the cert into the default keystore.  Where did I get the cert? by extracting it from Firefox - however it is in the code base - looking it up

Running an https rest target using this certificate - if the cert is in a default keystore - you dont need to define it.

return true; // TODO: security breach

client = ClientBuilder.newBuilder().sslContext(sslContext).hostnameVerifier(verifier).build();
