Janne Blomqvist aeebd94c77 Switch gcc ftp URL's to https
The FTP protocol is getting long in the tooth, and we should emphasize
HTTPS where that is available. This patch changes various gcc.gnu.org
URL's to instead use HTTPS.

For instance, kernel.org shut down FTP access in 2017, with the
explanation:

- The protocol is inefficient and requires adding awkward kludges to
  firewalls and load-balancing daemons
- FTP servers have no support for caching or accelerators, which has
  significant performance impacts
- Most software implementations have stagnated and see infrequent
  updates

README

This directory contains various files used by the gccadmin account on
gcc.gnu.org, mainly for automated tasks such as the daily update of
the date in gcc/DATESTAMP.  There isn't presently any scheme for files
checked in here to be automatically checked out and used by gccadmin,
so the files in Subversion and those used by gccadmin must be kept in
sync manually.
