[gRPC] Add a note for using gRPC outside remoting

Per discussion in crrev.com/c/2055362, it's generally not safe to use
gRPC outside Chrome Remote Desktop, especially in Chrome. This CL adds
a note to the BUILD.gn file to encourage people to discuss this with
Chrome security team before they decide to use gRPC.
