Feature: Enable using the web version of the language tool.

Allow option to connect to and use the remote web version of language tool without installing the language server itself.
I configured langtool
the following way:
(use-package langtool
:ensure t :defer t
:custom
(langtool-http-server-host "languagetool.org")
(langtool-http-server-port 443)
(langtool-http-server-stream-type 'ssl)
)
I also changed langtool-client-http-post
to post to /api/v2/check
instead of /v2/check
In theory, that should be enough to use https://languagetool.org/api/v2/ as a language server. However, when trying to call it from emacs, I get the following error:
error in process sentinel: langtool-http--parse-response-header: Parse error. Not found http header separator.
error in process sentinel: Parse error. Not found http header separator.
That wouldn't be possible as the LanguageTool Online Server only meant to be used as a test server, if you do more than 20 request in a minute, you will be banned from the server.
http://wiki.languagetool.org/public-http-api [20 requests per IP per minute (this is supposed to be a peak value - don't constantly send this many requests or we would have to block you)]
