Rework IGB Trust Certificate Dialog

      Description

      Situation: If a user attempts to load a file in IGB via URL through HTTPS and there is no issue with the certificate, IGB will load the file. If there is an issue with the certificate, IGB will ask the user if they trust the certificate. If the user confirms that they trust the certificate, the certificate is still considered invalid and the connection refused.

      Possible Resolution: Either IGB needs to honor the user's decision or not ask the user to validate the certificate and inform them that there is an issue with the certificate.

      Task: Understand the architecture and event flow that triggers it. Implement a fix that will lead to either outcome above.

      This issue is closely related to IGBF-1362.

            I tried replicating the issue using http://lorainelab-quickload.scidas.org/IGBF-1362 by changing the code in IGBTrustManager.java #checkServerTrusted to forcefully ask to trust the certificate.

            Findings

            1. If the user selects yes, then the data is getting loaded.
            2. User selects no, then an exception is thrown.
