Public bug reported:

The Flickr API now requires the use of https to access api.flickr.com
for all new application keys (see http://code.flickr.net/2014/04/30
/flickr-api-going-ssl-only-on-june-27th-2014/).

This is causing an issue with the external gallery, where a Flickr set
is not displayed, because the cURL request reports back an invalid API
key.

Replacing the http:// call with an https:// call in
artefact/file/blocktype/gallery/lib.php:163 resolves the issue.

** Affects: mahara
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

** Patch added: "Replaces http:// call to api.flickr.com with https:// call."
