connect: [host:port] is legacy for sshmh/connect

Early versions of the parser in connect.c treated these two as the
same:

    git clone [host:123]:/path
    git clone ssh://host:123/path

Keep that feature as legacy, but disable it for all other protocols.
Everything inside [] should go into the host part.
