Question

`xmantissa.web.SiteConfiguration` doesn't work with `StringEndpointPort`

SiteConfiguration specifically looks for TCPPort to find an unsecured port, and SSLPort to find a secured port. If you only have StringEndpointPorts in your site, it'll never be able to generate absolute URIs.

See #67.

This is kind of unsolvable in the general case; StringEndpoint may well result in something that there's no way to generate a proper HTTP URL for.

Instead of inferring from a TCPPort object, perhaps we should have an explicit NetLoc object?
