url-parse-as-address

Parse a url assuming http if no protocol or // is provided.

Useful for parsing things like foo.com and not interpreting it as a
path.

USAGE

``javascript
var parse = require('url-parse-as-address')
var assert = require('assert')

assert.deepEqual(parse('foo.com:1234/x?y=z#a=b'),
{ protocol: 'http:',
slashes: true,
auth: null,
host: 'foo.com:1234',
port: '1234',
hostname: 'foo.com',
hash: '#a=b',
search: '?y=z',
query: 'y=z',
pathname: '/x',
path: '/x?y=z',
href: 'http://foo.com:1234/x?y=z#a=b' })

assert.deepEqual(parse('foo.com:1234/x?y=z#a=b', true),
{ protocol: 'http:',
slashes: true,
auth: null,
host: 'foo.com:1234',
port: '1234',
hostname: 'foo.com',
hash: '#a=b',
search: '?y=z',
query: { y: 'z' },
pathname: '/x',
path: '/x?y=z',
href: 'http://foo.com:1234/x?y=z#a=b' })

// etc
`

By default this lib assumes http: is the protocol if none is
provided, because that's what web browsers do.
