Backport fixes for HTTPS and WMS issues of gh-pages to master

[chrismayer]

Due to 'Mixed Content' issues when opening the online examples with HTTPS and some broken WMS references in the online examples several fixes have been made in the gh-pages branch to make the online examples work again (see #359 and #371).

These fixes should be ported to the master branch as well, so they won't be lost on the next update of the gh-pages branch. The following commits should be the base for the backport:

• c8e1d7f
• 14cde9e
• 01a6ccc
• ea0347f
• e3275ac

Do we still need to do this?

[chrismayer]

I think it is an important reminder for the backport of the HTTPS stuff in gh-pages branch.
Doing the backport itself would be the better option of course 😉 Someone volunteering?

[marcjansen]

Yeah, I wasn't sure if we had done it. So this is still open. I'd prefer someone else doing it 😇

Would it be ok to load OpenLayers from a CDN that supports https? This way, OpenLayers can be removed in the gh-pages branch and will be available executing the examples locally. Thinking about cdnjs.

[marcjansen]

Yes that would be ok

[chrismayer]

OK for me.
