Description

When an agent is executed it'll check it's servers' UUID.
This is done using http, regardless of the setting here:
common/1.0/site.st: "inventory_upload_protocol" string => "https";

We've long put a redirect in place but found this is not being followed by curl.
It fetches the redirect message, and decides it doesn't parse as a legit UUID.

Adding -L to the general rudder curl options seems (to me) be a nice way of cleaning this.
If a redirect is encountered, curl then follows it (i.e. to https on same system), and the content check stays still in place.

I don't know if it can be done for minicurl and what you have on Windows.

This should also be implemented for the inventory-upload's curl:

./fusionAgent.cf:      "download_command"   string => "${g.rudder_curl} -L -k -s -f --proxy '' -o \"${g.rudder_var_tmp}/uuid.txt\" http://${server_info.cfserved}/uuid";
./fusionAgent.cf:      "download_command_prefix"   string => "${g.rudder_curl} -L -f -s --proxy '' --user ${g.davuser}:${g.davpw} -T";

Note the -L in the curl.

Janos: the protocol used for the first query cannot be configured yet, so it is http for now.
Subsequent requests should however be made in the configured protocol.
