Except that it still hardcodes (insecure) http for the GNU ELPA archive.
To check if GnuTLS is available, you can check if (gnutls-available-p)
returns non-nil, and if so then use https for the package archives. On
emacs >= 26.1, `package-archives' does this for the GNU ELPA entry that
it comes with out of the box.
