Cockpit 0.87

[Stef Walter]

This is a summary of the Cockpit weekly release. This week it was 0.87

Fix login on Windows
--------------------

Cockpit no longer prompts for a strange second login (which had to do
with SSO) on Windows. There are some remaining issues with how Cockpit
works on Internet Explorer, but most have been solved.

Host name in self-signed certificate
------------------------------------

In order to make life easier, when generating a self-signed certificate,
Cockpit now includes the local host name. Self-signed certificates
remain a stop gap. Real world deployments should replace them with
properly signed certificates from a certificate authority:

Ryan Barry has posted a pull request adding tuned (system performance
profile) support to Cockpit:

Dominik Perpeet and Jan Scotka to integrate Selenium based tests into
our test suite. This brings us closer to testing with oddball browsers
like Internet Explorer on each pull request.
