docs/config: mention protocol implications of url.insteadOf
If a URL rewrite switches the protocol to something nonstandard (like "persistent-https" for "https"), the user may be bitten by the fact that the default protocol restrictions are different between the two. Let's drop a note in insteadOf that points the user in the right direction. It would be nice if we could make this work out of the box, but we can't without knowing the security implications of the user's rewrite. Only the documentation for a particular remote helper can advise one way or the other. Since we do include the persistent-https helper in contrib/ (and since it was the helper in the real-world case that inspired that patch), let's also drop a note there.
