Public bug reported:

Mahara needs to have SSL reverse proxy support like Moodle does using
ssl_proxy. All versions of Mahara are affected (we are on 1.4.1).

The issue is that we are serving SSL certificates from a load balancer.
This means the Mahara server thinks itself is http which causes it to
generate a shared key with http://mahara.mysite.com in the header.

This presents itself as a problem when trying to set up SSO with Moodle,
since Moodle looks at Mahara's shared key, notices it's actually coming
from a secure site (https) and says the key is incorrect.
