[PATCH v2] Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones: Documentation/admin-guide

From: Alexander A. Klimov
Date: Mon Jun 22 2020 - 16:02:21 EST


Rationale:
Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.

Deterministic algorithm:
For each file:
If not .svg:
For each line:
If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`:
For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:
If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions
return 200 OK and serve the same content:
Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

Difference in v2:
Fixed missing = in changed .rst header. (README.rst)
