feed: Unsupported address type #1720

feed: should invoke xdg-open. feed: is a pseudo protocol, like magnet: of BitTorrent, so I consider it as a handler.

The URI scheme feed: is utilized to make an easier association and automation with Feed Readers. See #1719 On my system $ xdg-open feed:https://otter-browser.org/feed/ will be opened by Liferea as https://otter-browser.org/feed/.

@sjehuda, it seems that only Chrome attempts to open these URLs, not even the classic Opera, but it's easy to either redirect them or simply open in our viewer.

Moreover, perhaps it would be a good idea to rename our view-feed to just feed.
