Support RTSPS in WebStreams plugin

[Patby 8]

It would be awesome to have RTSPS being supported in the WebStreams plugin. I have devices which are solely capable of RTSPS (they do not accept unencrypted RTSP) and would like to integrate them.

Adding it, just gives this error:

Found this forum post which claims it should work, but practically it doesn't:

There's not really a error per-se, it looks like it's actively checking the "Source Location" for a valid protocol.

As mentioned in the title, I'm trying to use RT, such as:
rtsps://user:pass@192.168.1.1:322/streaming/live/1
(removing "user:pass" doesn't change the outcome/error)

The logs only indicate this during the "Save" event:

Meant to write "RTSPS" - oops. (so encrypted RTSP which seems to be somewhat different protocol-wise)

OK we'll take a look at it. Thanks.
