fix(connection): disable caching when on an insecure connection (apac…

…he#194)

When the page is served over an insecure connection, some browsers (Firefox) will disable the
CacheStorage API for security reasons and will throw an error when an attempt is made to use it.
Thus, do not even attempt to use CacheStorage on such connections in the first place.

fix apache#193
