Bug#799222: ITP: hitch -- scalable TLS proxy

After checking again today, I see that "stud" is present in "wheezy"
(oldstable), but not in later Debian releases.  I missed that last
night.

I would like to be able to provide some kind of upgrade path. The
key/cert handling, options and invocation should be roughly similar.

On the other hand, "hitch" has new defaults, and new configuration and
command line options for its functionality.  It is not a drop-in
replacement.

The "stud" package has low enough popcon rank that I suspect a
/usr/share/doc/hitch/README.migrating-from-stud would suffice.

They can be installed in parallel, working on different ports towards
the same backend, using the same certificates, enabling a controlled
switchover between the daemons.
