Re: [whatwg/url] URL dumb behavior (#623)

This has to do with idempotence and the parsing differences between parsing special and non-special schemes.  Consider this example:
```
x = new URL("asdf://host")
x.pathname // "" in Safari and the spec, "//host" in Chrome and Firefox
x.protocol = "https"
x.pathname // "/"
```
Changing the protocol has changed the pathname value.  This is undesirable.
