Addresses #20807 - updating URLs from HTTP to HTTPS where necessary. Due to the age of the Bitcoin codebase there are a number of legacy URLs with http:// that support https:// - I used a script to locate all of them and then visited each one to ensure they are available behind a secure domain. A copy of the script I used can be found on the issue #20807

This is a subtree that needs to be updated upstream


<h2>Note about Ext4 Filesystems</h2>
<p>The preceding numbers are for an ext3 file system. Synchronous writes are much slower under <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext4">ext4</a> (LevelDB drops to ~31 writes / second and TreeDB drops to ~5 writes / second; SQLite3's synchronous writes do not noticeably drop) due to ext4's different handling of <span class="code">fsync</span> / <span class="code">msync</span> calls. Even LevelDB's asynchronous write performance drops somewhat since it spreads its storage across multiple files and issues <span class="code">fsync</span> calls when switching to a new file.</p>

Concept ACK, but please squash the commits and remove the changes to the following files/directories:

  • contrib/macdeploy/macdeployqtplus: seems to be unrelated whitespace changes
  • depends/patches/: modifying patches will break them
  • src/leveldb/: this is a dependency and change should be submitted upstream
  • src/univalue/: this is a dependency and change should be submitted upstream

Thanks for addressing this! :)

Thanks for your contribution. However to move things along I'm going to fix this up and consolidate it with some other changes. Your commit will still be attributed to you.
