Zane Bitter 6e7b3be2b8 Add a make_url intrinsic function
A large proportion of uses of the str_replace function is to build URLs out
of various components from various sources. This is invariably brittle,
with a failure to escape special characters, deal with IPv6 addresses, and
so on. The make_url function provides a both a tidier interface and correct
handling of these edge cases.
