Re: [whatwg/url] URL parsing with raw ip like "127.0.0.1" (#622)

What would you expect the scheme to be for a "URL" like 127.0.0.1? The URL Standard only deals with actual URL parsing as observed programmatically (think `new URL(…)` or `<a href="…">`), not the browser address bar (which automatically prepends `https:` or `http:` as needed).

Also, if we have `<a href="…">` being served on a page https://example.com/, we would actually expect the resolved URL to be https://example.com/127.0.0.1. So the current spec appears to be correct.
