[HTTPS-E Rulesets] Rules for techreport.com and techdirt.com

[The Wanderer]

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA512

Two of the sites I read for news of different types weren't included in
the rulesets I got when I installed HTTPS Everywhere, so I wrote rules
for them. I've been using these rules for some weeks now, with no
observed issues not already accounted for in the XML files.


techdirt.com mostly works via HTTPS, and the one exception I've found
(rtb,techdirt.com) is explicitly excluded in the rules file.


'jobs.techreport.com' doesn't work (it appears to be externally hosted,
and the certificate uses the domain name of the hosting site, resulting
in a certificate mismatch) - but everything else I've found on that site
seems to only use the bare domain 'techreport.com', which works fine.

'www.techreport.com' apparently redirects to the bare domain, which
triggers the change to HTTPS via this rule. If that redirection occurs
at the server end, it would probably be possible for an observer to
catch the initial connection attempt unencrypted, so it might be worth
having the rule cover "*.techreport.com" and explicitly exclude the
jobs. server; however, I haven't spent time testing that yet, so I
haven't included it.
