doc: update http worker thread names
After using `Threadpool` for HTTP server in PR 33689, the previously
documented HTTP worker thread names are outdated. This commit makes
the corresponding changes to document new names for the HTTP worker
threads. Below is the output from the `thead list` command after
attaching `lldb` to `bitcoind`.
```zsh
thread #3: tid = 0xfe551, 0x00007ff80e3536f6 libsystem_kernel.dylib`__psynch_cvwait + 10, name = 'b-http_pool_0'
thread #4: tid = 0xfe552, 0x00007ff80e3536f6 libsystem_kernel.dylib`__psynch_cvwait + 10, name = 'b-http_pool_1'
```
What changed, and why it matters
This commit only updates a developer documentation file to reflect new internal thread names used by the Bitcoin Core HTTP server. It changes one line in doc/developer-notes.md from 'b-httpworker.x' to 'b-http_pool_x' and updates a documentation hyperlink. There is no code change, no functional change, and no security relevance.
No action required. This is a non-security documentation-only change.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The diff is a single-line documentation update in doc/developer-notes.md. It updates the documented name of HTTP worker threads following a prior refactor that switched the HTTP server to use the Threadpool class (PR 33689). The change is purely cosmetic/reflective in documentation and does not touch source code, build scripts, configuration, or runtime behavior.
