Attached patch

I didn't realize that org-protocol-capture is documented for URLs,
since the concept of capturing through org-protocol is useful for
non-web browser contexts.

Anyway, I'm not interested in updating the documentation for
org-protocol-capture at the moment, but even if org-protocol-capture
is documented to need a URL, it seems wrong for it to corrupt
org-stored-links but otherwise function correctly if a URL was not
provided.
