doc: HTTPS upgrades and URL fixes throughout the tree
* HTTPS upgrades
* 404 fixes, with hopefully better helpful links to the relevant documentation
* some trailing white space fixes
* resurrect utun-demo.c from a different source
* Don't touch openvpn.doxyfile.in though, as it was autogenerated
* Don't touch COPYING as it's an external license file
* The openvpn.net URLs will be addressed some other time
