[FLINK-12578] Use secure URLs for Maven repositories

• Type: Improvement
• Status: Closed
• Priority: Blocker
• Resolution: Fixed
• Affects Version/s: 1.6.4, 1.7.2, 1.8.0, 1.9.0

Release Note

By default Flink now specifies HTTPS URLs for all maven repositories.

Users building Flink from source may encounter issues when accessing the MapR repository, as they are some known (conditional) issues in regards to the SSL certificate.
In this case, users are advised to seek help from MapR to resolve the issue, or _if all else fails_ can revert to the HTTP URL using the "unsafe-mapr-repo" profile.
