[Koha] Enabling SSL for Koha staff view

You must create another virtual host at another port (for example, 8081) for
the staff area and enable SSL for that virtual host, and it will require
another SSL certificate. Your staff will need to use (example)
https://127.0.1.1:8081 if they want to use SSL, and http://127.0.1.1:8080 if
they don't want to use SSL.

Note that https://127.0.1.1 is in fact an alias for https://127.0.1.1:443.
You already used 443 for the OPAC, so you'll need another port for the
staff.
