string: fix exo_str_looks_like_an_uri()

Commit d11199b (Check if uris also contain a slash (bug #9244)) tried to
fix a hang in thunar by properly recognizing that 'http:' is not an URI,
however, while doing so, it broke proper URIs like 'magnet:foo'.

As the RFC clearly states:

   The following are two example URIs and their component parts:

         foo://example.com:8042/over/there?name=ferret#nose
         \_/   \______________/\_________/ \_________/ \__/
          |           |            |            |        |
       scheme     authority       path        query   fragment
          |   _____________________|__
         / \ /                        \
         urn:example:animal:ferret:nose

But even with this succinct example exo_str_looks_like_an_uri() fails.

There is an easy solution; fail only when component part is missing
('urn:'), but succeed otherwise.

This solution fixes 'magnet:foo', and doesn't break the current
expectation from thunar that 'http:' should fail, having the best of
both worlds.

Title:
  exo-open does not handle URIs properly

Status in exo:
  Fix Released
Status in exo package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in xdg-utils package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  when executing xdg-open "magnet:?...

  xdg-open detects XFCE display manager and calls exo-open "$1" witch is
  not capable to handle magnets at all.

  should it call gnome-open with xubuntu?

  quick fix:

  edit /usr/bin/xdg-open and change
  if [ x"$DE" = x"" ]; then
      DE=generic
  fi

  to
  if [ x"$DE" = x"" ]; then
      DE=generic
  fi
  DE=gnome
