404 returned from makalu.otobo.org

Since about September 10th there are four failing test cases in scripts/test/WebUserAgent.t . The cause seems to be that makalu.otobo.org no longer replies as expected.

It is not obvious whether this is related to the self signed certificate.

This is likely due to the change from otrs to otobo, without such a server existing here. We could try changing it back to otrs.com... ;) Or we set up this stuff ourselves.

This is not required for 10.0.14.

I propose to not provide a service makalu.otobo.org. Instead spin up a small webserver running on localhost. The small webserver can use https://metacpan.org/pod/Plack::Middleware::Auth::Basic.
Unfortunately Plack;;Test does not fit the bill as we want to test the user agent, not the application.

Let's take a different route here. Skip the failing tests that use makalu.otobo.org for rel-10_0. In lieu, convert these tests to a local webserver in rel-10_1. This should be easy in rel-10_1, as we already have a dependency on Plack in that branch.
