clonebundles: filter on SNI requirement

Server Name Indication (SNI) is commonly used in CDNs and other hosted
environments. Unfortunately, Python <2.7.9 does not support SNI and when
these older Python versions attempt to negotiate TLS to an SNI server,
they raise an opaque error like
"_ssl.c:507: error:14094410:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:sslv3 alert
handshake failure."

    The actual value doesn't impact client behavior beyond filtering:
    clients will still sniff the bundle type from downloaded content.
    We reuse the file header values for consistency.

+REQUIRESNI
+   Whether Server Name Indication (SNI) is required to connect to the URL.
+   SNI allows servers to use multiple certificates on the same IP. It is
+   somewhat common in CDNs and other hosting providers. Older Python
+   versions do not support SNI. Defining this attribute enables clients
+   with older Python versions to filter this entry.
+
+   If this is defined, it is important to advertise a non-SNI fallback
+   URL or clients running old Python releases may not be able to clone
+   with the clonebundles facility.
+
+   Value should be "true".
