Use HTTPS where possible

Jeremy Soller requested to merge xTibor:https into master

Created by: xTibor

I noticed that Google still points to the HTTP address of the website (http://www.redox-os.org/) instead of the secure one. I know there are redirects in place but it would be so much better to properly handle it. This PR attempts to solve this problem.

I changed the base URL to HTTPS in the config.toml file. This results in the following changes:

  • The site now reports the HTTPS address as its canonical one. Google should pick this up on its next visit.
  • The sitemap XMLs now link to the HTTPS addresses instead of the HTTP ones.

I also changed the links in the content files (including the outgoing links). Sites like microkernel.info (https://github.com/jermar/microkernel.info/issues/9), tuxnews.it and laboratoriolinux.es have problems with HTTPS so I kept their links as HTTP.
