Title: App Load Balancer Recipe Improvements:

The qa branch is way behind master (hence the 9 commits), but only my two recent commits are relevant here. Among my changes, per updated readme:

Numerous load balancer recipe improvements:
* add SSL support
* enable customization of load balancing algorithm (defaults to roundrobin)
* enable customization of incoming port (defaults to 80)
* enable customization of max number of connections per app server (defaults to 1 (only to avoid changing default behavior))
* add option to create x-forwarded-for header so that app servers can see the client's IP address instead of just that of the load balancer
