:heart: Thank you for your contribution!

Description

Software heritage uses urls with parameters, like https://archive.softwareheritage.org/swh:1:dir:44ac666e75004dd2a27ca0e09e73aecc0e8b426f;origin=https://github.com/amykwebster/MIPseq_2021;visit=swh:1:snp:46bcbe75339295c3d68fcf1257022aae8e6bee40;anchor=swh:1:rev:27839dcc9ef1587086be195349310fb70fbfcaf1 . However the idutils is_url function will reject these as not being a valid url.

This PR makes the is_url function more permissive. Software heritage ids and related urls are already in idutils, so it's a bit odd for idutlils to say that they aren't urls.

It is useful to link to software directly with a SWHID. SWHID with parameters are more useful from the core SWHID without parameters.
