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.

Changes in v2:
Undone all handhelds.org changes and 0 of 0 wearablegroup.org changes.I wasn't asking that the changes be undone, I was asking that those links simply be removed. They are actively harmful - much more so than any http: links - and shouldn't be there. *Sigh*. I guess I'll just do that. jon
