Match the url NPM calculates to download a tarball #100

NPM modifies the tarball url if the protocol doesn't match the registry used to query for the tarball. This can be inspected in npm itself here. This simply mirrors the behavior from NPM.

I discovered this because npm was working just fine, but jspm would fail to download npm resources because of a plain http proxy in the network that blocked access.
