Prefer https: URLs
In Gnulib, Emacs, etc. we are changing ftp: and http: URLs to use
https:, to discourage man-in-the-middle attacks when downloading
software. The attached patch propagates these changes upstream to
Automake. This patch does not affect files that Automake is
downstream of, which I'll patch separately.
Althouth the resources are not secret, plain HTTP is vulnerable to
malicious routers that tamper with responses from GNU servers,
and this sort of thing is all too common when people in some other
countries browse US-based websites. See, for example:
Aceto G, Botta A, Pescapé A, Awan MF, Ahmad T, Qaisar
S. Analyzing internet censorship in Pakistan. RTSI
2016. https://dx.doi.org/10.1109/RTSI.2016.7740626
HTTPS is not a complete solution here, but it can be a significant
help. The GNU project regularly serves up code to users, so we should
take some care here.

runtest: better command line API
* t/ax/runtest.in: Accept options '-k' and '--keep-testdirs' (same
as exporting '$keep_testdirs' to "yes"). To improve compatibility
with the "make check" interface, allow environment variables to be
passes on the command line. Minor adjustments while at it.

tests: move runtest.in away from the top-lever directory
Not only this leaves the top-lever directory less cluttered, but
helps in keeping the testsuite-related files more "centralized".
* runtest.in: Move ...
* t/ax/runtest.in: ... here. While at it, add customary
'@configure_input@' comment line.
* Makefile.am (runtest, EXTRA_DIST): Adjust.

tests: move 'runtest' into the top-level directory
Move our wrapper script 'runtest' (meant to allow the execution of
Automake test cases from the command line) from the 't/ax/' directory
to the top-level one. This makes the script easier to find and to
invoke. Much more importantly, our DejaGNU-checking test cases won't
try anymore to use that script instead of the 'runtest' program provided
by DejaGNU (that happened because '$(srcdir)/t/ax/' is automatically
added early to the $PATH variable in our test cases), which was causing
spurious SKIPs.
* t/ax/runtest.in: Move ...
* runtest.in: ... here.
* Makefile.am, t/README, .gitignore: Adjust.

cosmetics: rename t/ax/test-runner => t/ax/runtest
The latter is shorter and clearer. Better to do the rename early,
before other developers or contributors begin to get used to the
'test-runner' name.
* t/ax/test-runner.in: Rename ...
* t/ax/runtest.in: ... like this.
* Makefile.am, t/README, .gitignore: Adjust.
