improve webserver, add domain redirects (aliases), add tests and admin page ui to manage the config

- make builtin http handlers serve on specific domains, such as for mta-sts, so
  e.g. /.well-known/mta-sts.txt isn't served on all domains.
- add logging of a few more fields in access logging.
- small tweaks/bug fixes in webserver request handling.
- add config option for redirecting entire domains to another (common enough).
- split httpserver metric into two: one for duration until writing header (i.e.
  performance of server), another for duration until full response is sent to
  client (i.e. performance as perceived by users).
- add admin ui, a new page for managing the configs. after making changes
  and hitting "save", the changes take effect immediately. the page itself
  doesn't look very well-designed (many input fields, makes it look messy). i
  have an idea to improve it (explained in admin.html as todo) by making the
  layout look just like the config file. not urgent though.

i've already changed my websites/webapps over.

the idea of adding a webserver is to take away a (the) reason for folks to want
to complicate their mox setup by running an other webserver on the same machine.
i think the current webserver implementation can already serve most common use
cases. with a few more tweaks (feedback needed!) we should be able to get to 95%
of the use cases. the reverse proxy can take care of the remaining 5%.
nevertheless, a next step is still to change the quickstart to make it easier
for folks to run with an existing webserver, with existing tls certs/keys.
that's how this relates to issue #5.
