cmd/go/internal/web: reject insecure redirects from secure origins

We rely on SSL certificates to verify the identity of origin servers.
If an HTTPS server redirects through a plain-HTTP URL, that hop can be
compromised. We should allow it only if the user set the -insecure
flag explicitly.

Fixes #29591
