Comment:

 Scratch that. It appears Google/YouTube decided that they didn't want to
 fix this in the most obvious way. Instead, they added a nonstandard
 "scheme=https" parameter for those cases where you want https results
 instead.

 See https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/youtube-api-gdata
 /S9Fa-Zw2Ma8

 Attached patch will add the scheme=https parameter to the youtube call for
 the https cases, resulting in the iframe having the proper https src
 result. Tested on trunk, works fine. No special cases needed for https
 calls or SSL transport handling, the oembed call is still http, it's just
 the result that's being adjusted to have the https.
