#8300: Add parentheses to the list of valid URL characters for make_clickable
function

 The make_clickable currently doesn't work correctly for URLs with
 parentheses like these:

 {{{
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PC_Tools_(Central_Point_Software)
 http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa752574(VS.85).aspx
 }}}

 By adding () to the list of valid URL characters these URLs are correctly
 detected.  I've included a simple patch to do just that.
