Earlier I created #24459, where I wanted to add an option to
`HttpRequest.build_absolute_uri` to be able to create a https URI on a
http page, but we came to the conclusion this is the wrong solution to the
problem, so I would like to add the explanation for this to the
documentation.
I was thinking of a "Note" box with a text like:
"Django discourages mixing HTTP and HTTPS on the same domain. Therefore,
`build_absolute_uri` will always generate an absolute URI with the same
scheme the current request has."
