Re: [whatwg/url] Why is the host dropped if the path contains a Windows drive letter? (#302)

I tested IE6 (and Chrome 49) on XP using BrowserStack via Live DOM Viewer (one of the few pages that still works, hurray) with
```html
<a href="file://test/d:/testtest;'?"></a>
<script>
w(document.getElementsByTagName("a")[0].href)
</script>
```
as my input and verified that `.href` does show post-parse output using `file:/s` as input (becomes `file:///s`). IE6 preserves the host, Chrome drops it.
