Document the fact that some packages in Emacs are externally
maintained, and specifically document Org Mode's external maintenance.

The vast majority of the exchanges on this topic are "please send me
the form; ok I sent you the form", and there's no need to involve a
mailing list for that.

This mostly changes http: to https: in URLs. It also updates
some URLs that have moved, removes some URLs that no longer
work, recommends against using procmail (procmail.org no
longer works), and removes some mentions of the
no-longer-existing Gmane, LPF and VTW.
It doesn't update all URLs, just the ones I had time for.

b77723a Fix an outdated URL in a comment
This fixes some URLs I omitted from my previous pass,
notably those in lists.gnu.org. Although lists.gnu.org
does not yet support TLS 1.1, TLS 1.0 is better than nothing.
* lisp/erc/erc.el (erc-official-location):
* lisp/mail/emacsbug.el (report-emacs-bug):
Use https:, not http:.
Most of this change is to boilerplate commentary such as license URLs.
This change was prompted by ftp://ftp.gnu.org's going-away party,
planned for November. Change these FTP URLs to https://ftp.gnu.org
instead. Make similar changes for URLs to other organizations moving
away from FTP. Also, change HTTP to HTTPS for URLs to gnu.org and
fsf.org when this works, as this will further help defend against
man-in-the-middle attacks (for this part I omitted the MS-DOS and
MS-Windows sources and the test tarballs to keep the workload down).
HTTPS is not fully working to lists.gnu.org so I left those URLs alone
for now.
