Update pkg/README to change the Snort ruleset download URL from HTTP to

HTTPS to protect the oinkcode from being exposed (suggested by David
Hill).

Also add a note that registered users without a paid subscription are
only allowed to download the official Snort ruleset once every 15
minutes (suggested by Adam Jeanguenat).  This restriction is not obvious
on the snort.org site, so I think this note would be helpful to users.
