Review request for kdelibs.

Description
-------

When a non-local webpage contains a mailto: link and you click on it, konqueror shows a confirmation dialog:

This untrusted page links to
mailto: some.name at some.domain.
Do you want to follow the link?

(using the page with opera or firefox does not give any such warning and opens kmail)

The check is done by KAuthorized:authorizeUrlAction("redirect", pageURL, linkURL);

This patch fixes this by always allowing a redirection to a mailto link.

Testing
-------

The following simple html page when
the page is served from a local running HTTP Server
( http://localhost:8080/data/test.html )

<html>
<body>
<a href="mailto:test.test at test.at">test.test at test.at</a>
</body>
</html>

Thanks,

Martin Koller
