currently, license_patterns are just plain character strings.
For testing (as in #215), but also for checking existing URLs, it might be better to parse and store these as "proper" URLs objects, probably using the parser in httr.
For example, we currently sometimes store the protocol as https and sometimes as http, though this doesn't actually store any useful information.
