In 'live' testing scenarios argument passing to build_tests is convoluted and SSL may not work about gabbi HOT 3 CLOSED

See also #105 which has related ssl things to say.

I suppose one way to do this is to add yet another argument (url or uri) which is mutually exclusive of host, port, prefix and intercept.

Such a lot of arguments though...

There's still part of this which is not done, which is just passing the url to gabbi instead of parsing beforehand.

One option for doing this that wouldn't need to extend the method signatures even more would be to have something like a url_to_kwargs method that returned a dict of host, port, require_ssl and prefix that could be passed straight into built_tests. Of course now that I've written that down it's probably just easier to pass url and if it is present it overrides all of those.

Opinions?
