Paul Eggert bc511a64f6 Prefer HTTPS to FTP and HTTP in documentation
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.

If you think you may have found a bug in GNU Emacs, please read the
Bugs section of the Emacs manual for advice on
(1) how to tell when to report a bug, and
(2) how to write a useful bug report and what information it needs to have.
You can read the Bugs section of the manual from inside Emacs.
Start Emacs, and press
C-h r (to view the Emacs manual)
m Bugs RET (to go to the section on Bugs)
Or you can use the standalone Info program:
info emacs
m Bugs RET
(Standalone Info is part of the Texinfo distribution, not part of the
Emacs distribution.)
Printed copies of the Emacs manual can be purchased from the Free
Software Foundation's online store at <https://shop.fsf.org/>.
If necessary, you can read the manual without an info program:
cat info/emacs* | more "+/^File: emacs.*, Node: Bugs,"
Please first check the file etc/PROBLEMS (e.g. with C-h C-p in Emacs) to
make sure it isn't a known issue.
