Allow configuring http

TL;DR

Fix: For plaintext local dev, pass an explicit http: or ws: URL (e.g. the service URL for that host and port), or use the ?tls=0 query parameter added in 0.2.0. Also note: turso dev only speaks a very old HTTP API the client can't talk to - run sqld directly for a compatible local server.

The error

Issue tursodatabase/libsql-client-ts#39 (closed, 11 comments): When using a local database, e.g. `libsql://YOUR_HOST:3030`, this library would use `https`. This fails because I can't access YOUR_HOST over https. Please allow me to disable https, so that I can connect to a local client over HTTP. I'm using Cloudflare Workers so it seems like I cannot use the file directly.

Fix

1. For plaintext local dev, pass an explicit http: or ws: URL (e.g. the service URL for that host and port), or use the ?tls=0 query parameter added in 0.2.0.
2. Also note: turso dev only speaks a very old HTTP API the client can't talk to - run sqld directly for a compatible local server.

Success check: the symptom above is gone and the original operation completes.

For plaintext local dev, pass an explicit `http:` or `ws:` URL (e.g. the service URL for that host and port), or use the `?tls=0` query parameter added in 0.2.0. Also note: `turso dev` only speaks a very old HTTP API the client can't talk to  -  run `sqld` directly for a compatible local server.
