Description

Firstly great tool, thank you.

I'm currently scanning a few sites for mixed content warnings, another error i've spotted which is hard to catch is that a few pages have had hardcoded canonical urls with `http://` rather than `https://`.

I've got a bash script going through and scanning urls to ensure the canonicals correctly point to `https` but what do you think about baking a warning like that into this script? Something like

`[2015-01-07 12:54:47] MCS.WARNING: `

While it's not strictly a mixed content warning it's something I'm having to catch another way, do you think this check would have any place in this module or would it open a slipperly slope to too many unrelated checks?

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points; begin by reading the scanner's current mixed-content checks and how warnings are emitted. Confirm the project scope for canonical URL validation with maintainers, then define the expected warning behavior and coverage before implementation.
