how do you do let's encrypt? let's move this from an issue to the FAQ,

this probably takes care of #118 and #231 well enough to at least
resolve them and start using the md/docs

Otherwise, in the Oragono config file, you'll want to enable raw line logging by removing `-userinput -useroutput` under the `logging` section. Once you start up your server, connect, fail to oper and get disconnected, you'll see a bunch of input/output lines in Ora's log file. Remove your password from those logs and pass them our way.
## How do I use Let's Encrypt certificates?
1. Follow the [guidance](https://letsencrypt.org/getting-started/) from Let's Encrypt to create your certificates
2. You should now have a set of `pem` files (in Linux you will), mainly we're interested in your `live/` Let's Encrypt directory (e.g. `/etc/letsencrypt/live/<site>/`)
3. Edit your configuration yaml file
1. Change the `cert: tls.crt` to point to your `/etc/letsencrypt/live/<site>/fullchain.pem`
2. Change the `key: tls.key` to point to your `/etc/letsencrypt/live/<site>/privkey.pem`
4. If you are using auto-renew via Let's Encrypt you may want to have a service or timer send a SIGHUP to the oragono process to reload the configuration and certs
1. e.g. you could edit the `certbot.service` and add the following `ExecStartPost=/usr/bin/kill -HUP $(/usr/bin/pidof oragono)`
This was originally discussed [here](https://github.com/oragono/oragono/issues/118)
