Use HTTPS instead of HTTP

[snoyberg]

Also note usage of www. Bare domains redirect to www, so it's better to
avoid the extra HTTP roundtrip.

This is currently the only web request that stackage sends. I'll be mindful when working on stackage-setup to use https as appropriate.

n.b. The cabal.config file still says -- Stackage snapshot from: http://www.stackage.org/snapshot/[blah] (note the http), and main/Sandbox.hs currently depends on this precise string being present as a quick (and imprecise) verification that a local cabal.config came from stackage. Both of these things can be easily changed, I just wanted to note the status quo.

I verified on my machine that stackage init still correctly retrieves cabal.config files from stackage.org. @snoyberg I presume you did the same? Ready for merge?

[snoyberg]

Yes this is ready for merge.
