MarkerCluster pulls images from http:// path even if running under https

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The following line in markerclusterer.js has a hard-wired path for marker 
images:

MarkerClusterer.prototype.MARKER_CLUSTER_IMAGE_PATH_ =
    'http://google-maps-utility-library-v3.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/markerclusterer/' +
    'images/m';

When running the library over https (in order to embed maps in https-secured 
pages), pulling images from an http path will throw security errors to the 
console.  That also triggers security alerts in the lock icon in Chrome (I 
don't see it in Safari).

The image path ought to be reflect the http/https setting from where the 
library was loaded.

This is just a convenient default value which will work for most maps.

If the default is not appropriate for your needs (because you are using https 
protocol) you can simply set up your own styles array in the 
MarkerClustererOptions object passed to the MarkerClusterer constructor. Set 
the url values in the styles array to the image files accessed using the https 
protocol.

Note that you could also get things to work by setting the imagePath property 
in the MarkerClustererOptions object to

"https://google-maps-utility-library-v3.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/markerclusterer
plus/images/m"

assuming that you want to use the default cluster icon set.

That helped me. Thanks!

Added imagePath: 
"https://google-maps-utility-library-v3.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/markerclusterer
plus/images/m" to mc options.
