VisualEditor: External links that point to the local wiki should be changed into internal links, not interwikis

Description

Reported by Mattho69 on frwiki [1].

If I try to add a link to a Wikipedia article using its full form (http://fr.wikipedia/org/wiki/…), it is saved as an interwiki (see [2]) instead of a local wikilink.

I notice that it only happens with HTTP links, not with HTTPS ones (see [3]), which are not converted (maybe separate bug ?).
