Honestly, if MediaWiki is explicitly requesting an HTTPS link, I think it is
erroneous to produce something different, especially with something as
ambiguous as what $wgServer's scheme is. I think PROTO_HTTPS should give https
regardless of $wgServer.

In reality, I would love to just finish https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/22167
and stop using wfExpandUrl in new code altogether.
