Paul Menzel cbe21ed1e1 UPSTREAM: Use more secure HTTPS URLs for coreboot sites
The coreboot sites support HTTPS, and requests over HTTP with SSL are
also redirected. So use the more secure URLs, which also saves a
request most of the times, as nothing needs to be redirected.

Run the command below to replace all occurences.

```
$ git grep -l -E 'http://(www.|review.|)coreboot.org'
| xargs sed -i 's,http://\(.*\)coreboot.org,https://\1coreboot.org,g'
```

libpayload README
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
libpayload is a minimal library to support standalone payloads
that can be booted with firmware like coreboot. It handles the setup
code, and provides common C library symbols such as malloc() and printf().
Note: This is _not_ a standard library for use with an operating system,
rather it's only useful for coreboot payload development!
See https://coreboot.org for details on coreboot.
Installation
------------
$ git clone https://review.coreboot.org/p/coreboot.git
$ cd coreboot/payloads/libpayload
$ make menuconfig
$ make
$ sudo make install (optional, will install into /opt per default)
As libpayload is for 32bit x86 systems only, you might have to install the
32bit libgcc version, otherwise your payloads will fail to compile.
On Debian systems you'd do 'apt-get install gcc-multilib' for example.
Usage
-----
Here's an example of a very simple payload (hello.c) and how to build it:
#include <libpayload.h>
int main(void)
{
printf("Hello, world!\n");
return 0;
}
Building the payload using the 'lpgcc' compiler wrapper:
$ lpgcc -o hello.elf hello.c
Please see the sample/ directory for details.
Website and Mailing List
------------------------
The main website is https://www.coreboot.org/Libpayload.
For additional information, patches, and discussions, please join the
coreboot mailing list at https://coreboot.org/Mailinglist, where most
libpayload developers are subscribed.
