Patch trying to set KDE Connect as default phone application

The default phone application is Skype, even though (I guess) most people aren't using Skype to call normal phone numbers. KDE Connect seems like a better default. I tried to change the default using the attached patch, but the default won't change. Setting the default external application to KDE Connect worked though.

Alternatively, KAddressbook (& friends) could use "tel:" urls instead of internal "phone:" urls, since "tel:" already can use KDE Connect.
