Many firewalls don't allow FTP traffic through; HTTPS should be preferred when
possible for both availability and performance.

Sending this PR to staging just to avoid unnecessary merge conflicts with #83394
when maintainers do the master -> staging merge.

This passes nix-build -A sudo.src --check and causes no rebuilds.

Motivation for this change
Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS linux)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nixpkgs-review --run "nixpkgs-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

For reference, such changes cause no rebuilds, so they certainly don't need to go through staging.

Yeah, under normal circumstances I'd send it straight to master, but since this is not an urgent change and since there are sudo changes on the staging branch that'd cause git merge conflicts when you eventually hit master, I sent it to staging to save you and @FRidh some effort. :)
