aptwebserver: Refuse client immediately on TLS handshake
We implement a HTTP-only server here (that is wrapped by stunnel for HTTPS support), so if a TLS handshake reaches us it is always wrong and we can just close the connection immediately instead of accepting it and letting the client run into a timeout as we will never receive the message(s) we expect. This happens e.g. with browsers like Firefox that opportunistically try https first (even if you ask for http and specify a port).
