control/controlclient: disable https on for http://localhost:$port URLs

Previously we required the program to be running in a test or have
TS_CONTROL_IS_PLAINTEXT_HTTP before we disabled its https fallback
on "http" schema control URLs to localhost with ports.

But nobody accidentally does all three of "http", explicit port
number, localhost and doesn't mean it. And when they mean it, they're
testing a localhost dev control server (like I was) and don't want 443
getting involved.

As of the changes for #13597, this became more annoying in that we
were trying to use a port which wasn't even available.

Updates #13597
