After some pondering about the proper port for hkps, I think that 443
makes the most sense (in other words, use the same port number as
https). The reality is that there was never a particular reason why
regular hkp needed to be on port 11371. The protocol is really http,
and may as well have lived on the proper http port. I don't see a
reason to repeat this for hkps, so in the interest of simplicity, 443
seems to be the best choice.
