Subject: [drop] plugin HTTPS rewrite - rule base is to old (update is to big)

The usefulness of the _HTTPS rewrite_ plugin is questionable:

- the 36 rule files have not been updated since 2015 [1]
- actual there are 23760 rule files in the https-everywhere repo [2]

For the first, we can remove this plugin.  For a complete new implementation, it
might be good to know that there is a project "https-everywhere : Privacy for
Pythons" [3]
