[Ovmsdev] Added Pushover and SSL client support

Marko,
I guess you already saw my quick fix to the pushover module. Failing to clear the "read" flag leads to messages being held indefinitely by the notification system.
The fix is no real solution, as the current implementation will drop messages being raised during a network outage. A notify reader may use the "read" flag to
keep the messages on temporary loss of connectivity, but it needs to retry sending itself. There is no automatic re-delivery of messages. So you need to add
some flag telling the component to check for undelivered messages, as is shown in the server v2 / v3 code.
Also, as you're able to tell by your nice filter mechanism if a notification should be sent to the pushover service, you should check that filter already in the
filter callback. By doing so, messages without actual readers won't be queued in the first place, so that saves processing time and RAM.
I was also surprised by the service running without activation. The standard scheme for optional components is to implement the "pcp" power control scheme and
add an AutoInit() integration.
Regards,
Michael
