Master Branch add ALLOW_MAINHOSTNAME_SSL variable in 123.09beta01

add ALLOW_MAINHOSTNAME_SSL variable in 123.09beta01

- preparation work to allow Centmin Mod to create HTTP/2 HTTPS SSL certificate based main hostnames using ALLOW_MAINHOSTNAME_SSL='y' persistent config variable via addons/acmetool.sh outlined at https://centminmod.com/acmetool for letsencrypt ssl certificates with same rules applying needing valid DNS A record pointing the main hostname to your server IP first or via /usr/bin/nv command which can leverage addons/acmetool.sh if LETSENCRYPT_DETECT='y' if detected in persistent config file otherwise will fall back to self-signed SSL certificates (browser untrusted). Not available via centmin.sh menu option 2 or 22 methods as yet.
- the default main hostname vhost would be created with webroot path same as non-HTTPS main hostname's web root at /usr/local/nginx/html
- will conflict with phpmyadmin.sh addon usage so if you intend to use phpmyadmin.sh, you currently wouldn't be able to set ALLOW_MAINHOSTNAME_SSL='y' and use it.
- currently no non-https to https redirect is set for main hostname HTTPS as it's expected main hostname to be accessible from both non-https and https unless you manually do such a redirect in non-https main hostname vhost at /usr/local/nginx/conf/conf.d/virtual.conf
- still work in progress for testing so do not use of live production servers as yet

example via nv command method of generating Nginx vhosts outlined at https://centminmod.com/nginx_domain_dns_setup.html

change YOURDESIRED_FTP_USERNAME to your desired pure-ftpd virtual FTP username and then run SSH command below and leave $(hostname) intact as that is command to grab server hostname which should be same as hostname in server_name directive for non-https main hostname vhost at /usr/local/nginx/conf/conf.d/virtual.conf

for self-signed ssl certificate

nv -d $(hostname) -s y -u YOURDESIRED_FTP_USERNAME

for letsencrypt ssl certificate when LETSENCRYPT_DETECT='y' is set

nv -d $(hostname) -s lelive -u YOURDESIRED_FTP_USERNAME
