jwt: Deprecate RSA usage, use HMAC instead.

HMAC is a much simpler implementation, providing the same
benefits as RSA, avoids additional steps and keeps the code
simpler.

This patch also additionally

- Implements PutObjectURL API.
- GetObjectURL, PutObjectURL take TargetHost as another
  argument for generating URL's for proper target destination.
- Adds experimental TLS support for JSON RPC calls.

## Minio Browser
Minio Browser uses Json Web Tokens to authenticate JSON RPC requests.
Initial request generates a token for 'AccessKey' and 'SecretKey'
provided by the user.
<blockquote>
Currently these tokens expire after 10hrs, this is not configurable yet.
</blockquote>
### Start minio server
```
minio server <testdir>
```
### JSON RPC APIs.
JSON RPC namespace is `Web`.
#### Auth Operations
* Login - waits for 'username, password' and on success replies a new Json Web Token (JWT).
* ResetToken - resets token, requires password and token.
* Logout - currently a dummy operation.
#### Bucket/Object Operations.
* ListBuckets - lists buckets, requires a valid token.
* ListObjects - lists objects, requires a valid token.
* MakeBucket - make a new bucket, requires a valid token.
* GetObjectURL - generates a URL for download access, requires a valid token.
(generated URL is valid for 1hr)
* PutObjectURL - generates a URL for upload access, requies a valid token.
(generated URL is valid for 1hr)
#### Server Operations.
* DiskInfo - get backend disk statistics.
