Backport WHATWG URL to 6.x

Rodrigo Muino Tomonari requested to merge github/fork/TimothyGu/v6.x-url into v6.x-staging

Includes all commits related to the WHATWG URL parser up until now. To ease backporting, many changes to url documentation not directly related to the new parser are also included. For compatibility concerns, the new url.format(whatwgURLObj) overload and WHATWG URL support in fs and http are not backported.

PRs #11464, #9246, #13362, which the current WHATWG URL implementation requires, are backported in separate commits as they are logically separate, even if the commits themselves were made after the WHATWG parser landed and contained changes to it.

Fixes: https://github.com/nodejs/Release/issues/208
