[for-fun][icedtea-web] curl integration

[Jiri Vanek]

I was facing various bugs on https, and I have not seen way out.

And I needed to workaround issues after, the jars are done, so this evil was done .. :)

This patch is  - after pure-java fails to download - trying curl the resource (by forking insecure 
curl process).

Well it is working pretty fine :) (!!the security prompt is missing!!)

Now i was enlighten  - by Omair - and the workaround with SSLv2 handshake together with "trust all" 
(after a lot of security confirmations) temporal manager. So I will rather play with those two 
options. It should work for most cases. Anyway - this curl patch may be safety rope once everything 
else fails:)
