commit 6000334 (clone: allow cloning local paths with colons in them -
2013-05-04) is added to make it possible to specify a path that has
colons in it without file://, e.g. ../foo:bar/somewhere. But the check
is a bit loose.

Consider the url '[foo]:bar', the '[]' unwrapping code will turn the
string to 'foo\0:bar'. The effect of this new string is the same as
'foo/:bar' to the expression "path < strchrnul(host, '/')", which
mistakes it as a sign of local paths while it's actually not.

Make sure we only check so when no protocol is specified and the url
is not started with '['.

 I wanted to add a test then realized there were no ssh tests in the
 test suite. So laziness won :p
