bugzilla: make XMLRPC interface support http and https access stable

bugzilla: make XMLRPC interface support http and https access

Inadvertently support is currently only for https. For some reason I
thought xmlrpclib.SafeTransport did http and https, but it is https only.

So create http and https XMLRPC transports that retain cookies. Decide which
to use by inspecting the Bugzilla URL.

     The regular xmlrpclib transports ignore cookies. Which causes
     a bit of a problem when you need a cookie-based login, as with
     the Bugzilla XMLRPC interface.
 
-    So this is a SafeTransport which looks for cookies being set
-    in responses and saves them to add to all future requests.
-    It appears a SafeTransport can do both HTTP and HTTPS sessions,
-    which saves us having to do a CookieTransport too.
