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.

tests: remove remaining exec bits ('maint' branch)
The executable bit gives the impression that the tests are directly
runnable, as with "./t/foo.sh", but it has been a while since that
was the case. Today, tests are runnable only through "make check"
or "./runtest".
This change is for the 'maint' branch (automake 1.13a), and is a
follow-up to commit 'v1.13.2-3-g74017b5', done on the 'micro' branch
(automake 1.13.2a). It will soon be followed by a similar patch
for the 'master' branch (automake 1.99a).
* t/am-prog-cc-c-o.sh: Remove executable bit.
* t/ccnoco4.sh: Likewise.
* t/dist-shar.sh: Likewise.
* t/dist-tarZ.sh: Likewise.
* t/lex-multiple.sh: Likewise.

tests: can fake a compiler not grasping "-c -o" -- globally in all tests
The ability to easily do so will be quite important in upcoming changes
about C compilation handling and semantics of the 'subdir-objects'
option. Refer to the extensive discussion about automake bug#13378 for
more details: <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=13378>.
See also commit 'v1.13.1-34-g744cd57' of 2013-01-08, "coverage: compile
rules used "-c -o" also with losing compilers".
* t/ax/cc-no-c-o.in: New, a "C compiler" that chokes when the '-c' and
'-o' options are passed together to it on the command line.
* Makefile.am (t/ax/cc-no-c-o): Generate this script from it.
(noinst_SCRIPTS, CLEANFILES): Add it.
(EXTRA_DIST): Add 't/ax/cc-no-c-o.in'.
(check-cc-no-c-o): New target, runs the whole testsuite with 'cc-no-c-o'
as the C compiler (bot GNU and non-GNU).
* .gitignore: Update.
* t/ccnoco.sh: Use the new script instead of duplicating it.
* t/ccnoco3.sh: Likewise.
* t/ccnoco4.sh: Likewise.
* t/self-check-cc-no-c-o.sh: New testsuite self-check.
* t/list-of-tests.mk: Adjust.
