Insert Link popup shouldn't include http prefix
When clicking the "Insert Link" button on the post formatting toolbar, the JavaScript popup that asks for the link URL is pre-populated with "http://" --- but since that text is not pre-selected, it's not overwritten when pasting a URL into the input box. If one isn't paying attention and doesn't manually delete the prefix, the post ends up with a link to "http: // http: // example.com" (spaces added to prevent forum auto-formatting) that doesn't work when clicked.
To solve this, the input popup should not pre-populate with "http://" or any other prefix. If the user enters a URL without a protocol (eg. just "example.com") then one can be added for them in the inserted BBCode after the popup input is submitted.
