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.

;;; Commentary:
;; master-mode is a minor mode which enables you to scroll another
;; buffer (the slave) without leaving your current buffer (the master).
;; It can be used by sql.el, for example: The SQL buffer is the master
;; and its SQLi buffer is the slave. This allows you to scroll the SQLi
;; buffer containing the output from the SQL buffer containing the
;; commands.
;;
;; This is how to use sql.el and master.el together: The variable
;; sql-buffer contains the slave buffer. It is a local variable in the
;; SQL buffer.
