For handling file uploads on the server, the servlet container takes
care of the HTTPS work so you just use MultipartRequest (or
MultipartParser) the same as with HTTP.  When writing a standalone
client there's no container to help and you need to have more awareness
of the HTTPS communication, so use HttpsMessage there.  It encapsulates
the HTTPS logic.
