Description

I found another patch in my collection, where I had patched the Rackspace storage driver to use the HTTPS CDN URI.

I'm unsure if it may be best to have this as an option for storage drivers, but if this option is added, it will also need to be implemented for the other storage drivers. I would like some advice on this.

The patch that hard codes it to use HTTPS URIs always for the CDN, as a 1-line change (ie: without the settings proposed above):
