Node's legacy url module is deprecated. It's WHATWG API mirrors what's available natively in web environments.

To reduce dependencies and bundling complexity, we should use the WHATWG API. Since Node's is equivalent to native web's, we'll also be using consistent interfaces in all components.

To use the WHATWG API, we simply need to remove any url import statements.

Some useful notes:

new URL() throws if the argument is not well formed, and URL.parse() returns null. Otherwise, they are functionally equivalent.
