Type of Enhancement

Server Backend

Describe the Feature/Enhancement

some podcasts advertise their link as http when it is actually https.
welcome to nightvale for example has
http://feeds.nightvalepresents.com/welcometonightvalepodcast
when you request that url you are upgraded to https
currently this errors out with

ERROR: [podcastUtils] getPodcastFeed Error Error [ERR_FR_REDIRECTION_FAILURE]: Redirected request failed: Protocol "https:" not supported. Expected "http:"

Why would this be helpful?

I noticed that i wasnt getting podcast anymore because they had added this feature to their http server at somepoint, and when i went to fix copy and pasting the url it still didnt work. I had to go into the logs of audiobokshelf to figure out that the https upgrade was what was causing the issue.

Future Implementation (Screenshot)

n/a

Audiobookshelf Server Version

v2.17.2

Current Implementation (Screenshot)
