[issue8818] urlsplit and urlparse add extra slash when using scheme

[AdamN]

New submission from AdamN <adam at varud.com>:

urlsplit and urlparse place the host into the path when using a default scheme:

(Pdb) urlsplit('regionalhelpwanted.com/browseads/?sn=2',scheme='http')
SplitResult(scheme='http', netloc='', path='regionalhelpwanted.com/browseads/', query='sn=2', fragment='')

When using default_scheme as referenced in the documentation, it simply doesn't work:

(Pdb) urlsplit('regionalhelpwanted.com/browseads/?sn=2',default_scheme='http')
*** TypeError: urlsplit() got an unexpected keyword argument 'default_scheme'
