Credentials stored for an https:// URI were also matched against the
corresponding http:// URI, since reduce_uri() discards the scheme.

HTTPPasswordMgr and HTTPPasswordMgrWithPriorAuth now compare the scheme
too; URIs registered without a scheme still match any scheme.
(cherry picked from commit a7bb524)
