mplorentz 7f75d0db33 Change NIP-21 URL->URI 
I think the `nostr:...` scheme is not actually a Uniform Resource Locator, because it doesn't tell you where the data is located. For instance if I see the string `nostr:npub1sn0wdenkukak0d9dfczzeacvhkrgz92ak56egt7vdgzn8pv2wfqqhrjdv9` I understand that this identifies a Nostr keypair but I don't know where to find data for that keypair. The scheme does fall under the definition of a Uniform Resource Identifier, or maybe even the stricter class Uniform Resource Name. But nobody talks about URNs, so maybe best to just use the less-specific term "URI" here.

NIP-21

nostr: URI scheme

draft optional author:fiatjaf

This NIP standardizes the usage of a common URI scheme for maximum interoperability and openness in the network.

The scheme is nostr:.

The identifiers that come after are expected to be the same as those defined in NIP-19 (except nsec).
