Eric Eastwood 0935f2d23a Only try to use window.crypto.subtle in secure contexts to avoid it throwing and stopping all JavaScript
Relevant error if you crypto is used in a non-secure context like a local LAN IP `http://192.168.1.151:3050/`
```
Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'deriveBits')
	at new Crypto
	at new Platform
	at mountHydrogen
```

For my use-case with https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-public-archive, I don't need crypto/encryption at all.
