Description

**Steps to reproduce**

1. `dx new app`
2. Default platform is **desktop**
3. Add `a { href: "mailto:some@email.com", "Click" }` to `main.rs`
4. `dx run --platform desktop`
5. Click the link

**Expected behavior**
Clicking the link should open the standard mail program e.g. Outlook instead of the browser.

**Actual behavior**
The browser opens with an empty tab

**Environment**
- `dx --version` : dioxus 0.7.5 (d027e26)
- `dioxus = { version = "0.7.1", features = [] }`
- `rustc --version` : rustc 1.94.0
- Windows 11

Same behavior in 0.7.4. When running `dx run --platform web`, it works fine.
