Mention lack of HTTPS in WebUI magnet link warning

According to Mozilla docs, registerProtocolHandler() is only
available when using secure contexts (i.e. HTTPS for everything
outside localhost).
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Navigator/registerProtocolHandler

The message "Your browser does not support this feature" does not
make this obvious and can lead to confusion if the user is using a
modern browser.
