Update a lot of URLs to use HTTPS
*All* URLs were checked manually, but only once per domain!

I mostly concerned myself with URLs in documentation rather than source
code because the latter may or may not have impactful changes, while the
former should be straight forward.

Changes in addition to simply adding an s:

- changed pip and pypi references as their location has changed
- MPoD (iOS app) url redirects to Regelian, so I replaced those
- updated homebrew references

Notable observations:

- beets.io does have HTTPS set up properly (via gh-pages)
- beatport.py uses the old HTTP url for beatport
- as does lyrics.py for lyrics.wikia.com
- https://tomahawk-player.org/ expired long ago, but the http page
  redirects to https regardless
- none of the sourceforge subdomains have https (in 2019!)

MusicBrainz Submit Plugin
=========================
The ``mbsubmit`` plugin provides an extra prompt choice during an import
session that prints the tracks of the current album in a format that is
parseable by MusicBrainz's `track parser`_.
.. _track parser: https://wiki.musicbrainz.org/History:How_To_Parse_Track_Listings
Usage
-----
Enable the ``mbsubmit`` plugin in your configuration (see :ref:`using-plugins`)
and select the ``Print tracks`` choice which is by default displayed when no
strong recommendations are found for the album::
No matching release found for 3 tracks.

As MusicBrainz currently does not support submitting albums programmatically,
the recommended workflow is to copy the output of the ``Print tracks`` choice
and paste it into the parser that can be found by clicking on the
"Track Parser" button on MusicBrainz "Tracklist" tab.
Configuration
-------------
To configure the plugin, make a ``mbsubmit:`` section in your configuration
file. The following options are available:
- **format**: The format used for printing the tracks, defined using the
same template syntax as beets :doc:`path formats </reference/pathformat>`.
Default: ``$track. $title - $artist ($length)``.
- **threshold**: The minimum strength of the autotagger recommendation that
will cause the ``Print tracks`` choice to be displayed on the prompt.
Default: ``medium`` (causing the choice to be displayed for all albums that
have a recommendation of medium strength or lower). Valid values: ``none``,
``low``, ``medium``, ``strong``.
Please note that some values of the ``threshold`` configuration option might
require other ``beets`` command line switches to be enabled in order to work as
intended. In particular, setting a threshold of ``strong`` will only display
the prompt if ``timid`` mode is enabled. You can find more information about
how the recommendation system works at :ref:`match-config`.
