Add 'urn' to allowed protocols

Description

'urn' should be the safest protocol to allow on the planet as it doesn’t do much, except act as an identifier in various XML schemes.

the_guid() currently uses esc_url() as a default filter, meaning urn:uuid:<hash> can’t be used as a guid in feeds ithout first allowing the urn protocol. The Atom feed standard shows most examples with a urn:uuid used as the ID. (IDs in Atom must be URIs so using esc_url() still makes perfect sense.)

The attach patch adds the urn protocol to the list of allowed protocols. (See RFC 2141 for details on the protocol schema.)

Work-around: print( get_the_guid() ); doesn’t apply any default filters like the_guid() does.

@geekysoft Thanks for the ticket and the patch, looks good to me. The function needs only a new changelog entry for the new protocol, see [32346] for 'webcal'.

@ocean90, I’m sorry for not responding earlier. This went into my Spam folder. Do you still need me revise the patch to include the changelog entry? What version number should I use?
