Re: [whatwg/url] Add a neato informative table of various URL pieces (#337)

It's not really clear to me what questions you have, I only count one question mark in the preceding two posts. Here's my view on the terminology:

1. For the URL model we continue to use `scheme` et al. as these are more appropriate and less misleading than `protocol` et al. For the URL API we continue to use the latter as changing the API breaks compatibility and introducing new APIs solely to fix the terminology is not worth it. We could align the model with the API, but given the many non-API consumers of the model I don't think that would be fair.
2. The point of view of the URL Standard is that URIs and IRIs no longer exists (subsumed by URLs). And that URNs are URLs with the `urn:` scheme.
