Subject: [PATCH] LibWebView: Don't query public suffix list when sanitizing
 URLs

Previously, part of the procedure we used to sanitize URLs entered via
the command line would check the host against the public suffix
database. This led to some valid, but not publicly accessible URLs
being treated as invalid.
