SPARK-2879 [BUILD] Use HTTPS to access Maven Central and other repos
Maven Central has just now enabled HTTPS access for everyone to Maven
Central
(http://central.sonatype.org/articles/2014/Aug/03/https-support-launching-now/)
This is timely, as a reminder of how easily an attacker can slip malicious code
into a build that's downloading artifacts over HTTP
(http://blog.ontoillogical.com/blog/2014/07/28/how-to-take-over-any-java-developer/).
In the meantime, it looks like the Spring repo also now supports HTTPS, so
can be used this way too.
I propose to use HTTPS to access these repos.

Use HTTPS for Maven Central libs and plugins; use id 'central' to override
parent properly; use HTTPS for Spring repo
