They were never officially allowed and slipped in only due to sloppy
parsing. Spaces (ascii 32) should be correctly encoded (to %20) before
being part of a URL.
The new flag bit CURLU_ALLOW_SPACE when a full URL is set, makes libcurl
allow spaces.
Updated test 1560 to verify.
Closes#7073
wording taken from man page for CURLOPT_URL.3
As far as I can see, the URL part is either malloc'ed before due to
encoding or it is strdup'ed.
Closes#6953
Updated terminology in docs, comments and phrases to refer to C strings
as "null-terminated". Done to unify with how most other C oriented docs
refer of them and what users in general seem to prefer (based on a
single highly unscientific poll on twitter).

CURLU_NO_AUTHORITY is intended for use with unknown schemes (i.e. not
"file:///") to override cURL's default demand that an authority exists.
Closes#4349
Only allow well formed decimal numbers in the input.
Document that the number MUST be between 1 and 65535.
Add tests to test 1560 to verify the above.

APPENDQUERY + URLENCODE would skip all equals signs but now it only skip
encoding the first to better allow "name=content" for any content.

Fixes#3231Closes#3231
In order for this API to fully work for libcurl itself, it now offers a
CURLU_GUESS_SCHEME flag that makes it "guess" scheme based on the host
name prefix just like libcurl always did. If there's no known prefix, it
will guess "http://".
Separately, it relaxes the check of the host name so that IDN host names
can be passed in as well.
Both these changes are necessary for libcurl itself to use this API.
