Many websites now support HTTPS that may not at the time the code was
committed; let's use the HTTPS links where we can.

Supporting larger salts makes it possible to implement bcrypt-pbkdf
(http://www.tedunangst.com/flak/post/bcrypt-pbkdf), which is used in
the latest OpenSSH versions to encrypt key files.
This change makes expandKeyWithSalt (and thus NewSaltedCipher) about
20% slower, but since it isn't used in the "heavy" phase of computation
in bcrypt (it uses ExpandKey, which didn't change), the effect on
bcrypt performance is negligible.
The 16-byte limit was an artifact of optimization and due to the fact
that it was enough for bcrypt; Eksblowfish spec or other
implementations don't limit the salt size.
Additionally, there was a bug in the previous implementation: it only
generated correct results for salts consisting of 4, 8, or 16 bytes, and panicked if salt had zero length.

bcrypt didn't allow one, two and three letter passwords which is a
policy decision best left to the user of the code. Some users have
legacy issues which require such short passwords to be processed.

The go.crypto repo was missed when this function was removed from the
ciphers in the standard library.

Also fix salt expansion code to fill the properly sized array,
since the following code never uses more than 4 uints.
Also remove unused expandedKey array.

Manual edits to README.
Moved from main Go repository, deleted Makefiles, ran gofix -r go1rename.
Tested with: go test code.google.com/p/go.crypto/...
