Sorry, I thought I had updated the description, it should read:

$ gnome-software snap://moon-buggy

I'm not 100% sure the correct way to make the snap links work by
default. It works if you edit /usr/share/applications/defaults.list
(from desktop-file-utils). I'll do a separate SRU for this change.

** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  We want GNOME Software to be able to open snap:// URLs. This allows us to 
embed links in webpages to snaps (like apt://).
  
  [Test Case]
- 1. Run xdg-open snap://moon-buggy
+ 1. Run gnome-software snap://moon-buggy
  
  Observed result:
  Get error about unknown URL.
  
  Expected result:
  GNOME Software is opened showing the information for moon-buggy and ability 
to install.
  
  [Regression Potential]
  Backported change from master has potential to break other URL handling. 
Other URLs tested (apt:// appstream://) to confirm they still work.
