Support for custom SSL configuration about qtrest

[kafeg]

Hello. At now you may to use it by defaultSslConfiguration. Is it normal?

That would work if I only had to communicate with one Buildbot instance. But the tools I'm planning to make should have the ability to communicate with several instances at the same time. For that, I would need to be able to specify the QSslConfiguration to use for each connection separately.

You need hook function for doing some manipulations with QNetworkRequest before send this request to server, right? E.g. - set ssl configuration for request?

[estan]

Yes I think that should work (haven't written any code yet, just exploring options).

How about a virtual protected function in APIBase like

QNetworkRequest APIBase::createRequest(const QUrl &url) const {
    return QNetworkRequest(url);
}

and change the get, post, put, deleteResource, head, options and patch functions to do

    QNetworkRequest request = createRequest(url);

instead of

    QNetworkRequest request = QNetworkRequest(url);

?

Then I could override createRequest in MyAPI with e.g:

QNetworkRequest MyAPI::createRequest(const QUrl &url) const {
    QNetworkRequest request = QNetworkRequest(url);
    request.setSslConfiguration(...);
    return request;
}

Yes, i think it's good solution. May you create pull request? Now I have no way to add the code =(
