[HTTPS-Everywhere] Adding exceptions

[Peter Eckersley]

https://www.eff.org/https-everywhere/faq#bugs

Note however that if there's a bug which (like this one) causes the
secure cookie flag to be set somewhere that it shouldn't be set, turning of
the probelmatic ruleset might not be enough.  Depending on how the web app is
written you might have to log out of the site or even possibly clear your
cookies before normal behaviour resumes.
