[Xymon] check validity of ssl certificates (without http-status?)

I also have status issues on some of my hosts.  Instead of trying to 
avoid the status result, I've just set it as a known response by adding 
the *httpstatus* check to that host.
<IP>  domain.tld # noconn https://domain.tld ssldays=30:7 
httpstatus;https://domain.tld;301;
