creating a base sqlite URL with sqlite: instead of sqlite://

[Grinnz]

The URL "sqlite://" causes URI::db to turn a relative "dbname" into an absolute path, this may be a bug in URI::db but it is avoided by starting with the URL "sqlite:". "sqlite:foo.db" is unambiguous but "sqlite:///foo.db" is parsed as an absolute path, while "sqlite://localhost/foo.db" is parsed as a relative path. Passing an absolute "dbname" results in the same URL whether you start with "sqlite:" or "sqlite://".

I don't understand what this fix, since the module never care about the input database name.

[Grinnz]

The module doesn't care, but it uses it in a test and it would be better to recommend the more portable way in docs.

I opened libwww-perl/URI-db#8 about the underlying issue that comes up when starting with sqlite://.

Thanks for clearing up 👍
