> Please review this cleanup PR which updates a total of 12 links to external documentation or references in `java.base` to use https instead of plain text http.
> 
> Links in `java.security` and `share/data/tzdata` are excluded from this PR.
> 
> This is a documentaton-only cleanup. No tests are added or updated. `noreg-cleanup` added in the JBS. All updated links have been verified to resolve and to show the expected content. 
> 
> There are two files here with non-Oracle copyright headers, not quite sure how to update those? (`java_md_aix.h` and `xss-common-qsort.h`).
> 
> Changes beyond the obvious  are as follows:
> 
> `linux/native/libsimdsort/xss-common-qsort.h`:
> The current link uses a non-default port number. Changed to using the default port number. Reported upstream as intel/x86-simd-sort#170
> 
> `share/man/keytool.1`:
> www.oracle.com redirects this from `/technetwork/java/javase/javasecarootcertsprogram-1876540.html` to `/java/technologies/javase/carootcertsprogram.html`. Using the new URL here. Should this be updated in Oracle-internal sources as well?
> 
> `unix/classes/sun/net/PortConfig.java`
> The current link no longer resolves. As a replacement, I suggest https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/886227 which answers a support question regarding ephemeral ports.
> 
> `unix/native/libjava/*`,
>  Links redirect from "www.opengroup.org" to "pubs.opengroup.org". Using this new host in the URLs
> 
> `unix/native/libjava/ProcessImpl_md.c`
> A link to pasc.org now requires authentication. I changed this to be a Wayback link. Alternantives would be to delete this link, or to track down a revised version of the spec the linked Interpretation Request refers to.
