Replace our broken KURL with Google URL

Google wrote its own URL parsing library which is used a bunch internally, and
looks to be significantly better than KURL.  If nothing else, the several
hundred unit tests are useful.  I don't think KURL even does any
cannonicalization (which gurl does).

I think WebKit should just pull in gurl as a dependency.  The google coding
style is kinda strange, but generally pretty similar to WebKit's own.  It might
even be published somewhere externally...
