Description (last modified by )
Steps to reproduce
Based on https://twitter.com/l0c0luke/status/633684769121832960
Autolink will not recognise youtu.be/cSVuh_8-VQs as a link, hence autoembed will not find it too. Links without protocols are a common case as browsers hide them in the URL bar.
Expected result
We may try to improve the heuristic so it autolinks such URLs. It may happen that it will start autolinking too much, but links can always be removed, so it should not be a big problem as long as it's not happening for typical plain text.
