Description:

gtkxfer: add 'file://' scheme to purple_notify_uri() argument

The argument should be a URI, so make sure what we pass is one.
Not doing so causes trouble when the filename contains spaces or special
characters which may get escaped:

'/tmp/some file.txt' turns into '/tmp/some%20file.txt' which for example
xdg-open treats as a different and likely non-existent file.
'file:///tmp/some%20file.txt' is still a valid file URI though.

Backport of Pidgin 3 commits d9798c40b7ec and 9ab6c9a03ae5.
