Should check that required ports are open

[artisgarbage]

having another process running on :443 will prevent sprucebot platform start command from completing, CLI should check that this port and any other required ports are open.

@artisgarbage This requires the start command to run with root privileges. Seems better to me to just rely on the tooling to report that something is listening on port 443

can't we just sniff it with something like portfinder to prevent going all the way down the rabbit hole before hitting a problem?

[elkwood]

That package still delegates to a net.createServer().listen(port) call. That will throw EACCESS when that command tries to listen on port < 1024. Since we're trying to listen on 80, we don't really know if something is listening already or not.

grrr
