xQuery helper functions for dealing with URLs

muURL.xqm

xquery version "3.0";
(:~
This module contains helper functions for dealing with URLs.

When receiving webmention the post parameter 'source' is a URL pointing to the
origin of the mention.

 Before we get and store a sanitized version of an HTML document the url links to
 we want to able to

* check if the URL meets our acceptance criteria   ( no use wasting bandwidth )

* extract the base URL for the html document so we can resolve any relative or
  absolute URLs contained in document to the base URL

* be able to hash the url to get a unique identifier that can be used as a file
  name to store the document

  before storing a  html doc we want to be able to resolve links in the doc

 to do this we need to get the base URL for the doc

@see http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2396.txt
    5.1.3. Base URI from the Retrieval URI

   If no base URI is embedded and the document is not encapsulated
   within some other entity (e.g., the top level of a composite entity),
   then, look for base in html doc

    if a URI was used to retrieve the base document, that URI shall
   be considered the base URI.  Note that if the retrieval was the
   result of a redirected request, the last URI used (i.e., that which
   resulted in the actual retrieval of the document) is the base URI.

It contain URL related stuff and a xQuery xqsuite test plan for testing the functions.

Wonderful and exemplary work! Thank you for posting it, Grant!
