[url] Parser seems to return strings rather than data types (#14)

I don't understand why the IPv4 bit of the parser for instance returns a string rather than the underlying representation. The same goes for many other parts of the parser.

That does not seem useful going forward if we ever want to introduce APIs that return things closer to the metal.
