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

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray <rdmurray at bitdance.com> added the comment:

I've added Senthil as nosy to double check me, but my understanding is that the scheme is just the part up to the colon.  If you want to have a netloc in the URL, you have to precede it with a '//'.  Otherwise there's no netloc.
